Mutant Message Down Under

Marlo Morgan

The author says that this is autobiographical. She had been working on health projects in the USA and in Australia when she was taken on walkabout for three months by a group of aborigines. The book is mostly the story of the journey but ends with the aborigines' message to the world - basically an ecological one - people must change and look after the earth instead of destroying it. The story is interesting, but the writing is bad. Lots of questions are left unanswered.
