Fish Out Of Water

In this work of humorous adolescent fiction and adult nostalgia, set in the later 1980s, a 15-year-old surfer from the Gold Coast of Queensland, Australia, is uprooted by his parents and moved to an Outback country town and school. Phillip “Fish” Fisher must learn to manage his family, make new friends, navigate the idiosyncrasies of Australian rural living, deal with the academic and sporting demands of high schooling, and plot his romantic future.
