About this listen

For many years, I wanted to write a story about the mass suicide in Jonestown, Guyana, particularly the role of the Air Force in airlifting the remains back to the United States. I refused to write about it because I thought anything connected with Jonestown should entail one sentence: Guyana was a horrible, horrible event, and the US military did gruesome things they should never, never had done.

But as time passed, the fact that I never wrote about Guyana became oddly disturbing. If you're a writer, the assimilation of experiences almost obliges you to write about them. So I wrote Ghost of Guyana.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this release, but two men trying to exorcise Guyana's terrible past from military aeroplanes is a great mash up and inspired. It fills its 'novella' length well and doesn't outstay its welcome. Nate Cimmino is excellent as the narrator, really bringing the story to life.
