1 9 y separately published work icon No-Name Bird Josef Gert Vondra , Ringwood : Puffin , 2000 Z252068 2000 single work novel young adult 'A topical, contemporary novel set in Timor, No-Name Bird is the heart-warming and extraordinary story of a small boy, Jose, and how he sees and reacts to the unfolding tragedy of the Indonesian invasion of Portuguese Timor in 1975. With the increasing violence, Jose finds solace in the wisdom and guidance of his uncle Adolfo and No-Name Bird, the fighting cock they train. Interspersed within the story are details of the events of the time - the struggle between newly formed political parties, total withdrawal of Portuguese forces, the short but vicious civil war and finally the Indonesian invasion with its enormous loss of life'.(Source: cbonline.org.au.
