Twilight for the Gods by ERNEST k. GANN , abridged in ten parts and read by Blain Fairman (1) In the autumn of 1927 the threemasted barquentine Cannibal sailed from Papeete bound via Suva for Mexico with a cargo of copra and a complement of passengers notable only for their poverty and their failure in a dozen parts of the world. The ship is an unseaworthy anachronism; the Master an embittered refugee from rum. The consequence of their coming together is disaster. Producer ROGER PINK BBC Birmingham
