Sometimes you need to lose yourself before you can find what you’re looking for.
Andrew and his mate Benny have just finished high school — now they’re flying to Byron Bay to celebrate. The small surf town they’ve heard so much about is pumping with young people and parties. Summer’s getting started and everyone wants to forget their problems.
And, for Andrew, there are plenty of things he’d like to forget.
He falls out with his mates and hooks up with Heidi. He’s never met anyone like her. She busks, smokes dope and their band makes great music. But Andrew discovers that neither he nor Heidi can truly escape the lives they’ve left behind.
The Byron Journals is a fun, sexy and fast-paced debut from a talented new writer.
Daniel Ducrou has extraordinary insight into the lives of young people as they walk on the wild side. A novel to shock and delight.
Due for release late June 2010 through Text Publishing.
