博客來My first response to the gob-smackingly arrogant and senseless sinking of Greenpeace’s Rainbow Warrior-by Gallic Spooks in Auckland Harbour in 1985 which also killed a Portuguese environmentalist-was total disbelief; my second response, however, was my 135-page novella The Journeyman, written in anger about a fictional group of female and male ecological warriors as they made their way to Muroroa atoll to protest the then subterranean Nuclear Testing by France’s Force du Frappe. Just prior to the advent of the World Wide Web, I turned this short novel into Pacific Meltdown, my first screenplay.
I eventually rewrote my story as Pacific Apocalypse & The River Ocean a wide-ranging mini epic seen through the eyes of a brave Australian farming and soldiering family no great distance from Narrabri and Pillega.
