  • Kem Nunn is an American fiction novelist, surfer, magazine and television writer from California. His novels have been described as "surf-noir" for their dark themes, political overtones and surf settings. He is the author of five novels, including his seminal surf novel Tapping the Source. He has collaborated with HBO Producer David Milch on the show Deadwood and with Milch co-produced the HBO series John from Cincinnati, a surfing series set in Imperial Beach, California which premiered on June 10, 2007.
  • Kem Nunn est un romancier américain contemporain. Il a écrit Tapping the source (Surf City), Pomona queen (la reine de Pomona), Dogs of winter (le sabot du diable), Tijuana straits. Sa trilogie sur le surf en a fait un des auteurs les plus lus par cette communauté. Son style à la fois lyrique et hyperréaliste rappelle l'univers de Jim Harrison. Ses personnages, sympathiques, souvent en quête de rédemption pourraient avoir été créés par un Bruce Springsteen ou un encore un Chandler, ou un Hemingway. Ses thématiques: l'Amérique et ses mythes perdus, l'écologie. Malgré son fort rapport à l'océan et au surf, il reste très difficile à cataloguer, ce qui est assurément la marque d'un très grand auteur.
