°Contract’s end

June 27, 2009

In Wake in Fright, a man in very white suit tries to get out of town, end of contract time. Whiter than white, thinks he has shaken off that hint of indentured labour.

Meets policeman for “a drink.”

Things go very badly from there.

  1. Have you read the novel? Scariest Australian book I’ve read.

  2. Many times, but long ago. Scary, yes. Frontier conformism. And it’s an interesting time for it to be re-screened, yes?

  3. Hello, we haven’t communicated before but I have followed your blog for a while and wanted to ask a favour about something I am currently writing on work, precarity etc. I can’t see an email contact button anywhere on the site, so could you possibly email me back so I can send a message? Thank you.
