A celebration of our great game, From? the Outer brings together 30
personal stories about Aussie Rules from unexpected voices- those
who are female, Indigenous or gay; those with a disability, a
foreign accent or even u perhaps most dubious of all u literary
leanings. Some are closet fans, some are out and proud. Many are
ground-breaking and revolutionary, shaking up the institution that
has dominated cultural life in Melbourne, and much of Australia,
for generations. Some are actively involved in the game, such as
Leila Gurruwiwi, panellist on Australia's first all-Indigenous
footy show; Angela Pippos, one of Australia's first female sports
commentators; and Jason Tuazon-McCheyne, founder of the LGBTI
supporter group the Purple Bombers. Others, like Christos Tsiolkas,
Sophie Cunningham, Tony Birch and Alice Pung, share their poignant,
passionate experiences as spectators and supporters.a Engaging and
surprising, From the Outer shows how footy can both thrill and
devastate, exclude and unite, by shining a light on the diversity
and splendour of the game.
There is a rhythm to life and this book helps you dance to it.
Through heart breaks and doubt to faith and freedom, Lacresha
creates a masterpiece of poetic longing that leads to absolution.
This is THE book every poetry lover must read
