‘ A must read. – The RM Williams Outback Magazine

‘Alexander writes from first-hand experience of the harshness of bush life as well as a deep love of the land’ The Courier-Mail (QLD)

‘An enthralling Australian saga’ The Weekly Times (VIC)

‘ Outback stories … are huge right now and fourth generation grazier Alexander is the heir apparent.(A Changing Land) is a rural drama with all the right elements.’ – Toni Whitmont, Booktopia Buzz Editor

‘Alexander built a strong story line in ‘The bark cutters’ and describes an attachment to the land normally associated with indigenous people, this attachment is carried through to the next generation of the Gordon family in the sequel ‘A changing land’. Nicole Alexander has become one of Australia’s top female authors and I am sure many will love this truly great piece of Australian fiction.’ – Cathryn Harris – Head Librarian Mt Gambier Regional Library, SA.

The Bark Cutters

‘ (An) Engrossing Australian saga’ - Womans Day

‘ A Life on the land in outback NSW … inspired Nicole Alexander to write The Bark Cutters. Cleverly capturing the lives of four generations of one family, Alexander splits her story into two time zones tracing the family back to the 1850′s. – Sunday Mail Brisbane

The Bark Cutters is an engaging saga of pioneers in a new land. It’s a romantic story about the choices we make and those made by our hearts. Both a historical account and modern love story, it’s the kind of book you can curl up with on a cosy Saturday. – Andrea Parks - www. sassisamblog.com

An engrossing multi-generational saga set around Wangallon, the Gordon family homestead, this multi-layered story of romance, risk and family secrets by Nicole Alexander, ‘Australia’s Bush Storyteller’, is highly recommended. – Sara Foster-Author of Come Back To Me (Random House 2010)

A pacy read…rollicking family saga’ – Weekly Times Now

Praise for Divertissements-Love·War·Society selected poems

‘Nicole’s work is both pure and compelling…at times provoking, at others startlingly simplistic. A subtle beauty pervades even the most harrowing image and a freshness of style lifts a sometimes sardonic, wistful voice into a powerful reminder that in everything we endure and aspire too, there is always hope… ’
Josh Levi-Stone – The Poet’s Network

‘Poetry…open this book, suddenly the word is looking cool again.’ – C.W. Salis
