In 1922, the young, adventurous travelling Agatha Christie got the surfing bug with her husband Archie on a year-long around-the-world trip. She recounts in her autobiography that, \u201cwhenever we could steal time off\u2026we took the train and went to Muizenberg (South Africa), got our surf boards, and went out surfing together.\u201d Later in Hawaii, she wrote, \u201cI learned to become an expert\u2026 Nothing like that rushing through the water at what seems to you a speed of about two hundred miles an hour; all the way in from the far distant raft, until you arrived, gently slowing down, on the beach, and foundered among the soft flowing waves. It is one of the most perfect physical pleasures that I have known.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surfing and literature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What the \u2018physical pleasures\u2019 of surfing and creative writing share in common is indulgence in the metaphor. A metaphor is a use of language that takes one notion across to another, bigger, more expansive notion to increase its quality, intensity and presence. The word \u2018metaphor\u2019 simply means \u2018to transfer\u2019 or \u2018carry across\u2019. \u201cThe wave was punchy\u201d is a classic metaphor used by surfers around the world. Of course, the wave doesn\u2019t literally \u2018punch\u2019, but figuratively speaking, of course it packs a punch. The literal idea of the punch is carried across to the breaking wave as a bigger, more complex idea \u2013 the punchy power of the folding water.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe glassy wave combed by a light offshore\u201d is another classic surf metaphor. Of course, the wave isn\u2019t literally made of glass, or literally \u2018combed\u2019 by the wind, but figuratively speaking, the wave looks like glass &#8211; transparent, shattering on impact; and the wind pulls through the wave like a comb so that spray raises like hair. The wave is figuratively hair-raising. Metaphors clearly bring depth, quality and intensity to otherwise plain speaking. In this sense, surfing is a metaphor for gliding. We \u2018surf\u2019 the internet because we glide around it with ease, with no apparent energy source. Good surfers glide on and around waves with such ease. To watch them is to view metaphors in action. They are more than motion &#8211; they are poetry in motion.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When, in 1907, the writer Jack London spent his first tranche of royalties for his best-selling novel <em>Call of the Wild<\/em> on a boat trip to Hawaii, he stood on the beach at Waikiki and watched surfers riding from out back all the way onto the sand on heavy wooden boards. As a waterman himself, Jack immediately appreciated the beauty of surfing. But how did he describe the scene? \u201cI saw a guy standing upright on a wooden board\u201d? Nah. He writes: \u201cHe is Mercury \u2013 a Brown Mercury. His heels are winged, and in them is the swiftness of the sea.\u201d The description is poetic, metaphorical: \u2018winged heels\u2019, \u2018swiftness of the sea\u2019. The surfer (George Freeth, who taught Jack to surf) takes on the qualities of the sea itself as it pushed relentlessly towards shore, rising as waves that break on the sand. The surfer is a messenger born of the sea and borne by it. The surfer is himself a wave, mercurial, swift-footed. Creative writers like Jack London crank up the metaphor count to breathe life into language.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agatha Christie was another great writer: \u201cThe surf boards in South Africa were made of light, thin wood, easy to carry, and one soon got the knack of coming in on the waves,\u201d wrote Agatha Christie. \u201cIt was occasionally painful as you took a nosedive down into the sand, but on the whole it was an easy sport and great fun.\u201d Ultimately she stood up, delighted: \u201cOh, it was heaven! Nothing like it. Nothing like that rushing through the water at what seemed to you a speed of about two hundred miles an hour; all the way in from the far distant raft, until you arrived, gently slowing down, on the beach, and foundered among the soft flowing waves.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anne Beddingfeld, one of Agatha\u2019s characters in the novel <em>The Man in the Brown Suit<\/em>, is described surfing in Cape Town: \u201cSurfing looks perfectly easy. It isn\u2019t. I say no more. I got very angry and fairly hurled my plank from me. Nevertheless, I determined to return on the first possible opportunity and have another go. I would not be beaten. Quite by mistake I then got a good run on my board, and came out delirious with happiness. Surfing is like that. You are either vigorously cursing or else you are idiotically pleased with yourself.\u201d This may be the first time that the common nickname (a metaphor) \u2018plank\u2019 for a board had been used outside surfing circles. And Agatha brilliantly captures those dual experiences of surfing as both infuriating and rewarding.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Agatha Christie\u2019s most famous character Hercule Poirot was never reported hanging ten, nor did her other famous character Miss Marple wax up her plank, but Agatha\u2019s success as a British crime writer (she sold over a billion copies of her 80 novels) was certainly injected with a little saltwater soul. She got the bug, and was likely Western Europe\u2019s first female stand-up surfer. \u201cInstinct is a marvellous thing. It can neither be explained nor ignored,\u201d concluded Agatha\u202fin <em>The Mysterious Affair at Styles<\/em>. This would be a great description for the timeless allure of surfing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you asked surfers who was the first Western European woman to stand up on a surfboard, it is unlikely that they would think of Agatha Christie, the iconic crime novelist and one of the bestselling writers of all time.
