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:
“Beyond the horizon, or even the knowledge, of the cities along the coast, a great, creative impulse is at work—the only thing, after all, that gives this continent meaning and a guarantee of the future. Every Australian ought to climb up here, once in a way, and glimpse the various, manifold life of which he is a part.”
—Vance Palmer (1885–1959)
“The names of those who in their lives fought for life,
Who wore at their hearts the fire’s centre.
Born of the sun they traveled a short while towards the sun,
And left the vivid air signed with their honour.”
—Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
“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)
