1 1 y separately published work icon Apollo Bay William Fox , Melbourne : Rabbit Poetry Journal , 2023 26861246 2023 selected work poetry '‘William Fox reminds us that, behind the poetry, poets are human and are built from place. For years, Fox has crafted his voice to arrive at this magnificent debut: biding time, honing cadence, refining his ability to lure us to a bluestone precipice where, a few poems in, we become trapped in the hyper-realism of the author’s environments. The poetry is vulpine with calculation and footfall, attack and strategy and reflects the soundscape of a rural space. Don't even bother with a picnic … follow Fox into the bush and the hamlets found there. If you come back, read the collection again.’ —Kent MacCarter'

— Appears in: Overland [Online] , May 2018;

'Footage of Bob Dylan during the 1985 recording of ‘We are the world’ turned into a meme recently. The footage is great, and it’s the first thing I thought of when I read the title of Aidan Coleman’s poem ‘Band | Aid’ (published in Overland’s summer edition and republished below). The connection made sense because ‘We are the world’ was the US response to Band Aid, a 1984 UK invention famous for ‘Do they know it’s Christmas’.'  (Introduction)
