Australian Left Review was a monthly journal of the Communist Party of Australia (CPA) from 1966 to 1992. It was one of a number of left political journals founded in Australia in the post-war years, including Overland and Arena (first series).
Australian Left Review was the successor to the earlier CPA journal Communist Review. In 1992, the publication briefly changed its name to ALR Magazine before ceasing publication altogether.
Famous quotes containing the words australian, left and/or review:
“Each Australian is a Ulysses.”
—Christina Stead (1902–1983)
“I used to join the murmurings about “Where are the qualified women?” As we murmured, we would all gaze about the room, up toward the chandelier, into the corner behind the potted palm, under the napkin, hoping perhaps that qualified women would pop out like leprechauns.”
—Jane O’Reilly, U.S. feminist and humorist. The Girl I Left Behind, ch. 5 (1980)
“I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an airhole. I dislike it. I do it and I am always resolving to give it up.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
