BiographyHistory

Pierre Grundmann arrived in Fremantle in 1972. After working at various jobs in Australia, he returned to Paris and became editor of the left-wing daily, Liberation. In 1996, Grundmann, together with his Australian-born wife and child, returned to Australia and settled in Hampton, Victoria. He continued to write for Liberation, keeping its readers informed of events in Australia.
Grundmann, by now an Australian citizen but no longer happy in Australia, returned to Paris in 2003 with the manuscript of a novel which was published in February 2005. He wrote Surfeuses Paradise '...not as a Frenchman living in Australia, but as an Australian using the distance my French culture gives me.'
