Hardback. From the publication of his first book in 1965, Les Murray has been the central figure in Australian literature. Scholars have faulted his proposals for an Australian canon; writers have bristled after receiving his brisk critiques of their work on the backs of postcards; feminists have scolded him for his traditional views on religion and morality. Yet when Murray, already mired in depression -- the black dog, he calls it -- suffered a stroke and fell into a coma, the whole nation awaited news of his recovery.Peter F. Alexander reveals in this eloquent biography the source and stimulus for Murray's poetry, a life that has been, from the beginning, an alternating sequence of exhilaration and calamity. His mother died of injuries sustained when she gave birth to him; his father, a farmer, withdrew into grief, in some ways neglecting his young son. Even so, by the time Murray reached university in Sydney he was recognized as an odd genius. He could not add -- he remains practically innumerate -- but could learn languages overnight and wrote stunning poetry. Though prone to depression, which led him to live hand-to-mouth for long stretches, he gathered many friends around him, married a beautiful Italian expatriate, and fathered four children, one stricken with autism. Les Murray: A Life in Progress tells the fascinating story of the lifework of a beloved poet. 2000, First edition. A near fine copy only marked by very light rubbing at the spine ends and a faint hint of tanning of the page edges. The d/w is also near fine with only very light edge rubbing.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Illustrated endpapers, xii, 391pp., b/w illustrations, notes, bibliography, index. Age toned text block. Spotting to fore and bottom edge. Browned edges. Slightly rubbed Dustjacket. "In 1995, at the suggestion of his publishers, he set foot on the ever-treacherous ground of Les Murray studies. It was a dangerous move; he had not previously written about a still-living subject, and he was aware of what a divisive figure Murray was. It's likely that his being entrusted with an authorized biography, coupled with his South African origins and his devout Anglicanism, may have made Murray's multiple enemies among the Australian literary citizenry suspicious. Early copies of the book were released, and immediately, a week after the sudden death of the Alexanders' daughter, threats of legal action began. The publishers did a volte face, the book was withdrawn, and it was not until a year later that a new edition was released." Gerard Windsor- Obituary The Sydney Morning Herald 29.01.2015.
