'love and its penalties a memoir' by John Bartlett
John Bartlett grew up in country South Australia on the Murray as a pious Catholic boy before attending boarding school in Adelaide. As a teenager he entered a Catholic seminary in Sydney where he spent seven years training to be a Catholic priest before going overseas to work in Mindanao in the Southern Philippines.
There he was exposed to the political turmoil of the Marcos' Martial Law years and the ongoing wars against Islamic separatists. In 1980 he left the priesthood and returned to
Australia and Melbourne where he came out as gay at the height of the HIV AIDS pandemic.
He took on a variety of jobs, including kitchen hand, masseur and film extra before turning to professional writing and subsequently published fiction, non-fiction and poetry -
twelve books in all.
At its heart this is a story of falling in love too easily and too often.
