1 1 y separately published work icon Anh and Lucien Tony Page , Crawley : UWA Publishing , 2020 20019966 2020 single work poetry prose

''Anh and Lucien is a compelling celebration of male desire and intimacy –  and also a gripping clash of cultures and ideologies. Danger and death pervade Tony Page's sensuous and sensitive evocation of a risky love affair in an alluring, unsettled place and time, Indochina 1940. Intrigue and art, passion and espionage interweave to drive and doom the relationship between Anh, a young revolutionary, and Lucien, a disaffected French bureaucrat. Page skillfully deploys alternating dramatic monologues to increase the tension as loyalty and betrayal merge towards Lucien's final sacrifice.' -- Jan Owen 

''The story of desire between two men is told with exquisite beauty and restraint using prose poems, epistolary poems, found poems and documentary poems to build from suspense a tragedy that is also a victory for humanity over small-mindedness and oppression.' --  Jennifer Harrison'

1 2 y separately published work icon Dawn the Proof Tony Page , Ormond : Hybrid , 2016 9197719 2016 selected work poetry

'The 75 poems in this collection impress with their truth, beauty and craft. Compelling subjects are dealt with strongly yet delicately, while history is exposed to personal scrutiny, and made intimate. Cultures and landscapes are woven with new - found connections, nudging us to look at ourselves from a questioning angle - and exult in the vision.' (Publication summary)
