Biography of Richard Appleton, libertarianism and social conditions in Sydney, 1945-1965.
Appletons life, told here in such an entertaining fashion, is not only emblematic of the Push but, in many ways, emblematic of a large number of intelligent, sleepwalking urban males who grew up after World War II It is a very important and illuminating social and historical document and, because Appleton is a poet, it is beautifully written. -- Bruce Elder * Sydney Morning Herald *
Richard Appleton was an Australian poet, author, editor and encyclopaedist.
