'This moving and utterly gripping true story is a testament to the bravery and guts that human beings can display when truly pushed to the brink.'

One twilight, Glenn Orgias was surfing at Bondi Beach when the worst happened: he was attacked by a shark, a 'man in a grey suit', as surfers call them. Although it released him, Glenn thought his life was over - he was 80 meters from shore with a severed arm, losing blood fast, and the great white was somewhere below. All he could think about was his wife, Lisa, who was four months pregnant.

​

Man In A Grey Suit is a powerful memoir of personal restoration. It's a story of rehabilitation, of overcoming anger and anxiety. It's the story of how surfing, the sport that almost killed him, helped Glenn tun his life around.

​

​"It is while coming to terms with phantom pain after the loss of a limb that Orgias arrives at deep psychological insights...The methods he discovers to ease his untouchable pain are astonishing."
