Presented in five sections. Each section has its own title and some have an epigraph:
Sunshine Flag (pp.1-32) - And the system went crazy (John McEnroe)
Karma (pp.33-48)
Landscapes (pp.49-75) - These are the voyages of the starship
Venus Postcards (pp.77-87)
Uluru Ocean (pp.89-102) - And the trees on the broad and sloping sward / Their length'ning days shadows cast, / 'Time flies.' The current will be no joke, / If swollen by recent rain, / To cross in the dark, so I'll have a smoke, / And then I'll be off again. (Adam Lindsay Gordon, 'Ye Wearie Wayfarer')
