The Coconuts of Mars

Gilbert Drake, despite his achievements in life, is a stranger amongst men and a laughingstock amongst women—stuck in the darkening confines of modern life, forever ruled by time, and fighting an underlying depression brought on by his obsessive compulsions and strict routines. He is about to embark on a manned mission to Mars. But when he is mysteriously thrust upon a desert island with nothing but his clothing, a personal transformation takes place. Initially taken hostage by primitive tribesmen, he soon discovers friendship, confidence, freedom, and best of all… love.
