— Appears in: Cordite Poetry Review , August no. 87 2018;
— Review of History & the Poet R. D. Wood , 2017 selected work essay

'Although Robert Wood’s History and the Poet is described as essay, it defies being labelled as one genre. Perhaps like the definition of poetry itself, which shifts and changes between individuals and contexts, language and culture, so do Wood’s words. With sincerity and curiosity, Wood invites the reader into a personal journey, asking us at the start: What is Australia? What is poetry? and What is poetry in Australia? In search of answers, what follows is heartfelt discourse; meditations, manifestoes, letters, mythical stories and, at times, academic hyperbole that is steeped in the author’s philosophical, poetic and political relationship with the natural world and its languages.'  (Introduction)

'The South Coast Correctional Centre is located near Nowra, a little more than two hours south of Sydney.The centre houses uup to 600 inmates, mostly men. In early October 2012 The Red Room Company's Artistic Director Johanna Featherstone headed to Nowra with poets Lionel Fogarty and Nick Bryant-Smith to run intensive poetry workshops over three days. Like other 2012 Unlocked projects, The South Coast Correctional Centre workshops focused on Indigenous inmates, in response to the deeply troubling over-representation of Indigenous Australians in prisons.'
