'Eelahroo (Long Ago) Nyah (Looking) Möbö-Möbö (Future)' is the most recent collection from
Australia's foremost experimental and political poet and one of the best known contemporary
Aboriginal Australian writers Lionel G. Fogarty. "Sometimes angry defiant sometimes sad
and always in love with people and country Lionel Fogarty is cosmically off the scales holds
multitudes is wise riddling and funny too. Like all romantics the word is energy wilderness
and invention but the modern is where he's going. If these poems were dice they're all
loaded. There's no voice comes close to this intensity. And if you want something predictable
and 'correct' (in terms of language and rhetoric) go elsewhere. 'Here comes the tranquility
incarnation.'" -Adam Aitken "Once again Lionel Fogarty presents a collection of poems unique
in the telling. From bar room brawls to constitutional referendums past loves and hopes for
the future these new poems obliterate the landscape holding the reader in a place of
Aboriginal contemplation." -Ali Cobby Eckermann
