Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Indigenous Studies. LGBTQIA Studies. "It is twenty years since Night Song and Other Poems was published. That was a poetic recording of my journey from childhood, through adolescence, marriage and a return to Australia from twelve years in Aotearoa New Zealand. The foci in that book--identity, family, childhood--were deliberately occluded. My sexuality, in the 1980s of its writing, was presented as though I was at the time a straight man coming to terms with my Wiradjuri heritage. I skirted around Aboriginal politics and identity. No more. The journey continues in this book and I, as tour guide, take you to unvisited, secret places that were definitely not seen to be acceptable or proper to visit in the past. The Mabo judgement informed much of my thinking in Night Song and there is no doubt that the same-sex marriage debate of 2018 and its outcome inform these poems. They are less tentative and far more certain in my expression of Aboriginal and sexual identity and acceptance. My real life experiences are here--expressed guts and all--far more honestly than before, and hang the consequences in the open. For me, wholly healthy. A long-time friend has often said, 'It's amazing how death changes you.' Not living authentically has been a living death for me. Like the Ancient Mariner, I have unshackled multiple albatrosses from my being, and have finally blessed all those facets of myself once believed to be slimy, ugly and at all costs to be avoided. The Murrumbidgee is a river I was born next to...and now, seventy and more years later, am returned to."--John Mukky Burke

Excerpt from Where the Dead Men Lie: And Other Poems When preparing these verses for the press, the first question which met me was this: Should Boake be treated from a literary standpoint or from a personal standpoint - as poet or as man and poet? I chose the personal standpoint. To consider Boake as a literary figure, with an eye chiefly to his literary reputation, meant omission of whatever herein is crude or weak, in order that readers should judge him only by his best. Such a course implied loss and discontent to many persons who care little for the niceties of style, and find in vigorous picturing and natural emotion ample amends for bad rhymes and false accents And, what is more important, such a course would have given a wrong impression of Boake. Some of his most valuable work lies in fragments of poems which as wholes seem comparatively ineffective. These fragments could not be divorced from the context, yet were not lightly to be discarded.

'A heart-warming evocation of childhood during the Great Depression . . . I loved every page.' BRYCE COURTENAY The small town of Gundagai in the 1930s is no place for the attractive and flamboyant Belle Carson and her young son, Teddy – particularly when she longs for him to achieve the success that eluded her on the stage and screen. Determined to pursue this dream, she abandons her husband and their Murrumbidgee River home for a more vibrant city life. But Belle's obsession leads her and Teddy – whom the press christens 'the Murrumbidgee Kid' – into a world where nothing is safe or familiar. And from her carefully hidden past a threat soon emerges to make their precarious lives even more vulnerable . . . From rural Gundagai to the bright lights and shady underbelly of 1930s Sydney, this is a beautifully written and adsorbing story about an unconventional family's coming-of-age.

In Douglas Stewart's last letter to his dying friend David Campbell (dated June 1979), he recalled their correspondence, commenting that: 'Whatever happened to be outside [your] window, or seen in a morning's walk lifted a letter into poetry'. Two years earlier, Stewart had written that he'd been sorting out a 'great stack' of his friend's letters to go to the National Library of Australia, declaring: 'of course they are full of your nature observations, & will undoubtedly be published some day'. David Campbell was likewise to place the letters which Stewart wrote to him in the Library's Manuscript Collection and now, with this book, Stewart's prediction of the letters being published comes true. Ranging over a period of four decades, the letters passing between these two major Australian poets talk of life, poetry, publishing (the Bulletin, and Angus & Robertson), friends and professional acquaintances, including Judith Wright, Norman Lindsay, R.D. FitzGerald, A.D. Hope, Rosemary Dobson and Francis Webb, as well as the men's shared love of fishing. Letters Lifted into Poetry movingly documents a great Australian literary friendship and provides a lively window into both men's writing and times.
