An Adelaide Writer on the World Stage, Peter Craven , single work review
— Review of Life as Art : The Biographical Writing of Hazel Rowley Hazel Rowley , 2021 selected work biography ;

'Hazel Rowley is the most heroic figure in the history of Australian biography. This woman, who died freakishly of what looked like a chill 10 years ago in New York, turned herself into a biographer of international stature out of a sheer passion to tell the truth about human life as a nonfiction narrative. Her sister, Della Rowley, and a close friend, Lynn Buchanan, have put together a collection of her pieces. They are not chronological; they’re repetitious and follow no set order, but they have a luminous and obsessive power.' (Introduction)

(p. 17)

(Introduction)

(p. 18)
