Late Storms for Darwin: Vague Journal Foreword by Dr. Athol Pyne
John C. Gleason
A light aircraft crashes in stormy weather on a desert island. Castaways include Dr. Jack Vague, the infamous UN Anthropologist from 1973 to 1989 until he was fired for ineptitude, lechery, drug-taking, corruption and most notably, insulting the Ayatollah Khomeini. It's primitive as can be when the true reason for the plane crash is revealed. Deadly conflict ensues as Bob the pilot, Sue Tran (caterer), Mr. Korda (mining executive) and his wife, a post-op transvestite nun (Sister Mary who becomes Ann) and an Aboriginal lad (Chirp) and Yousef, the Afghan smuggler - all have to try to survive against the elements, and sinister human design.
