'The Walnut Tree is Tim Slade’s debut collection of poetry. It is audacious yet down-to-earth writing, rich with the language and icons of the bush and suburban contemporary Australia. He writes of cricket and music, mountain biking, snakes, echidnas and extinctions, and of the effects of our social and industrial landscapes on the human body, psyche, and other species. He engages, often humorously, with poets such as Les Murray and Clive James, as well offering a response from the heart to Indigenous culture and Country.'
