Summary

It’s 1992 and magazine journalist Nigel Simmonds escapes corporate life to move to Bali, the Island of The Gods. His first port of call is Ubud, below sacred Mount Agung, where he sets up home among a collection of characters for whom life in the West–known as The Machine–has become untenable. It’s among these crystal believers that he finds his place as the observer of a late century hedonism that ultimately proves destructive for anyone who enters. Can he find redemption?
