Synopsis

Down Rainbow Road includes two new sequences of poems by Rob Wallis. Inheritance is a multi-voice history of Australian gay experience from the earliest days of exploration and settlement. Muscular Flirtations gathers more personal reflections on a life-struggle towards acceptance and love. Selected Poems presents the variations of Rob's poetry through five earlier collections.

'This new work by Rob Wallis records the brutal truth of Australia's homophobic past and reveals his own story, a man who has lived it, survived it and survives it still, proudly and as a poet. There's an open hunger in these apges. There's protest, desire and declaration. There's the renouncing of shame and guilt, plus the acknowledgement of damage and fallibility. He writes ...

...the mighty hurricane of truth

will sweep all the debris away

and leave you standing naked

scarred imperfect a column

of light an infinite illumination

Rob Wallis is no secret, but with this deeply humane work of languish, lust and love, there's no doubt that he's arrived.' - Nathan Curnow
