Zen and the Art of Surfing: A Collection of Short Stories
a review by Trevo Recnarc



These autobiographical fictional and non fictional short stories are an amazing snapshot into the mystical, mythical and metaphysical spirituality that every adult can relate to, including those who are non surfers.

This literary slideshow perfectly captures how and why generations of people who grew up in the church of the sea. Amazing story lines and poignant messages can be found in each of the 20 tales.

Rod Sterling was said to have been television’s most talented writer of all time for spending few words to tell great stories. Greg Gutierrez must have that same writer’s sense.

Zen and the Art of Surfing easily might be the handbook that any adult surfer could use for rearing young surfers in the “karmic etiquette” required in the water globally. This collection is a great read and a must for every waterman’s library.
