Hardback. Alexander Buzo, Random House Australia. From Test matches to social knocks - from Lord's to the concrete driveway and the triumphs of the Don. From drama to biography, from eulogy to satire and from anecdote to analysis, this book looks at the game of cricket: from an examination of the memories of Dennis Lillee, Jeff Thomson and Glenn Turner to the poetry of Clive James and Nicholas Hasluck. This book doesn't attempt to provide a definitive history of Australian cricket, but rather illuminate its many facets and angles. Cricket writing from the days of Jack Fingleton and Arthur Mailey to the hard-bitten approaches of Bobby Simpson and Ian Chappell is included. Hardback.

First produced in Adelaide in 1974 for the Nimrod Theatre Company, Coralie Lansdowne Says No has become a classic of the Australian New Wave. Coralie's search for a sense of self independent of men reflects as much on the enduring need for emotional security and comfort as on the need for social progress. 1979. Reprint. A very good copy. {"length" => ["19"], "width" => ["13"], "units" => ["Centimeters"]}.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Buzo has something real and immediate to say about Australian attitudes. He makes the audience uneasy about the unperceptiveness of an 'average' Aussie confronted by a well-mannered, educated Pakistani student. Norm parades many of the proper, accepted attitudes which [] are shot through the fabric of the Australian character.'- Griffen Foley, Daily Telegraph, 10 April 1968Written and performed in 1968, Norm and Ahmed was Alex Buzo's first performed play. It gained immediate notice, both for Norm's spectacular language and for the character of Ahmed, one of the first South Asian characters to feature in contemporary Australian theatre. Still alarmingly relevant in the 21st century, Norm and Ahmed has earned its place as a classic of Australian theatre due to its timeless themes and the heightened language, performance style and concern with the behaviour of Australians, its origins and causes that characterised the New Wave. A rather ocker, white Australian male encounters a well-mannered Pakistani student with revolutionary ambitions in a Sydney park at midnight. Buzo creates an image of race prejudice as a profoundly irrational force in the behaviour of ordinary Australians.
