Dawn is magnificent. The ocean is stilled like opal opulence save for the wake astern a lone trawler as she ploughs her way along the contours of the Nor-West Shelf. Mackerel skies are reflected, ruddy refractions of the dawn's early light...' (Abstract)

1 y separately published work icon Merry-Crack-Mass Warwick Newnham , Moonee Ponds : In Short Publishing Company , 2015 20831116 2015 single work novella

'Merry-Crack-MaSS speaks to character and choice referencing morality texts like 'Pilgrim's Progress' in moral laxity and human hurt; the innocent punished alongside the guilty, protagonists as anti-heroes, ritualised atonements of guilt.

'The universe holds no mystery it just is as it is and ever shall be.'
