This novel looks at why men can suddenly lose it in their middle years and run amok. Why they start acting like wild teenage boys again. And why some men do things none of their family would ever believe them capable of. This is a rough, gutsy hilarious, but sometimes sad and contemplative novel attempting to discover what really lies behind a mid life crisis. It's a story of a number of broken men trying to rebuild their dreams around sailing yachts, booze, drugs and young women. It's an inside look at the cruising lifestyle. It is a fierce novel about blokes - how they love, fail to love, or can't love, when loving would have been their salvation... If you are a man who loves yachts; the ocean, running wild and free this is a novel for you.
A tattered few of Australia's semi-traditional indigenous people, the Aborigines, live in an "archipelago"of filthy, stinking desert and remote communities cut off from mainstream Australia. Napaltjarri tells the story of a middle-aged white man and his confronting contact with the Pintupi people, in one of these depraved communities. The Pintupi live in the centre of Australia's harshest desert - an eight hour drive west of Alice Springs by four-wheel drive. Sent there to teach a small rag-tag bunch of children, he realises he has gone back forty thousand years in time. This is a place where spears and nulla nullas (fighting sticks) still exact tribal justice. It is a distant place where the ancient black sorcerers still ply their evil trade. It is a trip back into the heart of darkness, where rape, murder and insanity are driven by Kadaicha men, as well as by the white man's grog, which flows illegally into the communities - leaving a trail of extreme violence and sexual abuse of children. Is it possible for a white man to last even a year in this community? Is it possible he may be killed for loving a young full-blood woman promised to another man?

Bertie was a big "hairy man" from the Angali Mountains to the south of Papunya. His mob had been called Yipandipandi since the Dreaming. But now the local blackfellas, that "Honey Ant mob," called him Pungalungu. His "hairy" mob was sort of distant relations of the Papunya Pintupi and Luritja blackfellas. Now Bertie Jangala Pungalungu was tired. He had just walked all the way from his home, down from the Mountains to the Papunya community. Already he was missing his wife, Lipirinya. He had a lot of Walcha, (relatives), in Papunya, but decided not to visit them. His relatives would just "humbug" him too much, and demand all his "sitdown" money. He needed it for his trip. Pungalungu was going to Canberra. He was going to see the Prime Minister of Australia. Do you know why he was going to see the Prime Minister of Australia? Australian author and teacher, James Ward is uniquely placed to write about indigenous issues, having lived and worked in many remote Aboriginal communities. This deftly crated story of Pungalungu is much more than a tale of a man in search of a better way, it is a wonderful learning device with carefully selected questions and fun exercises. It will prove an invaluable tool for teachers working with indigenous children.
