Paul Kelly
Australia's best music writer examines the life of the Australian music legend - honest, revealing and a must-have for any Paul Kelly fan. Until now, no one has written the definitive biography of Australia's best-loved singer, song writer and poet. Taking us from Paul Kelly's family life as the sixth of eight children in Adelaide, Stuart Coupe, with Paul's blessing and access to friends, family and band mates, shows us the evolution from a young man who only really picked up a guitar in his late teens, to an Australian music icon. As Paul's music career took off he had to juggle the demands of rock'n'roll with real life and it wasn't always pretty. As Paul's manager for a time, Stuart Coupe...
How to Make Gravy
This extraordinary book has its genesis in a series of concerts first staged in 2004. Over four nights Paul Kelly performed, in alphabetical order, one hundred of his songs from the previous three decades. In between songs he told stories about them, and from those little tales grew How to Make Gravy, a memoir like no other.
The End of Certainty
A bold, invigorating analysis of the decade that revolutionised Australian politics - the 1980s.

The March of Patriots
Unveiling the inside story of how Paul Keating and John Howard changed Australia, this record presents these two personalities as conviction politicians, tribal warriors, and national interest patriots. Divided by belief, temperament, and party, they were united by generation, city, and the challenge to make Australia into a successful nation for the globalized age. The making of policy and the uses of power are explored, capturing the authentic nature of Australian politics as distinct from the polemics advanced by both sides. Focusing on how these prime ministers altered the nation's direction, this study also depicts how they redefined their parties and struggled over Australia's new economic, social, cultural, and foreign policy agendas. A sequel to the author’s bestselling The End of Certainty, this survey is based on more than 100 interviews with the two key players as well as other politicians, advisers, and public servants.
Don't Start Me Talking
He transforms the smallest everyday item, a winter coat or holiday gravy, into talismans of redemption and loss, with simple, unadorned language - Daren Wang, Paste Magazine. Kelly remains one of the country's most important artists, a songsmith able to condense epics into perfect four-minute pop songs - Jane Cornwell, London Evening Standard. His voice-sly and warm, laconic and sometimes frail-may be the closest thing we have to a national one - Robert Forster, The Monthly. If I was only allowed to listen to one artist for the rest of my life I would choose Paul Kelly - Kasey Chambers. DON'T START ME TALKING comprises some of the finest poetry written in Australia. Paul Kelly's lyrics illum...
