Raucous Choir of One Man’s Selves, Geordie Williamson , single work review
— Review of Tracker Alexis Wright , 2017 single work biography ;

'Leigh Bruce “Tracker” Tilmouth was one of those figures so larger-than-life that only the vast spaces of the Top End could contain him. His early story was drearily, tragically, common for its era. It should have done him in — left him broken in spirit or else killed him, just as it killed many of his generation — but he exceeded his circumstances and used them as rocket fuel, powering a can-do activism that was equal parts bush politics and serial entrepreneurship.' (Introduction)

 (p. 20) Section: Review
Tabernacles of Good Taste Reviled, Peter Craven , single work review
— Review of Off the Record Craig Sherborne , 2018 single work novel ;

'Craig Sherborne has been weaving fictions and wheedling words about the emotional atrocities of everyday life for a while now. His two memoirs, Muck and Hoi Polloi, are among the most amazing of their kind in Australian literature, even if the portrait of the author’s mother comes across as an act of literary matricide.'
