This beguilingly dark -- and funny -- novel takes us on the
road trip from hell with Gordon and Wayne, two frustrated artists
who take jobs at a remote weather station in Australia's Northern
Territory with the hope of finding solitude and inspiration.
Instead, they find crocodiles, swamps, unimpressed Aborigines, dope, six-packs, endless days in the sweltering heat, and , ultimately, alienation. But their journey affords an unflinching, original and at times hilarious look at what it means to grow up in the world today.
