1 13 y separately published work icon The Heart of James McAuley : Life and Work of the Australian Poet Peter Coleman , Sydney : Wildcat Press , 1980 Z126437 1980 single work criticism

'The Heart of James McAuley examines the work of the famous poet, editor, critic, and political thinker. It places the poetry in its biographical context from his anarchistic and avant-garde youth to the libertarian conservative and Catholic convert of later years. It takes a new look at the great Ern Malley hoax, his profound essays on the decolonization of New Guinea, his association with such major figures as B.A.Santamaria and Sir John Kerr, his involvement with the Industrial Groups in the ALP and with the DLP, his founding of the magazine Quadrant, and his response to a number of controversies from the CIA scandals to the New Left assaults on the universities. No other biography of McAuley encompasses all the wide-ranging activities of this great poet.'

1 14 y separately published work icon The Cut-Rate Kingdom Thomas Keneally , Sydney : Wildcat Press , 1980 Z547123 1980 single work novel historical fiction '1942 and the world is at war. Australia and its government look to events in Asia with alarm. Political reporter 'Paperboy' Tyson's relationship with Labor Prime Minister, Johnny Mulhall, gives him a privileged insight into the man's ambivalence to war. While the nation struggles to establish its role amidst the far-reaching events of the day, Mulhall finds himself strangely entangled in a personal dilemma no less weighty than the demands of his public role as a ruler in a cut-rate kingdom.'
