Writing
Like the world around us, my writing is honest, tough, gritty and confronting.
- Ali MC
The Eyeball End
Beginning with an acid-fuelled night in the Kimberley, the first decade of the 21st century sees Ali MC travelling the globe in an attempt to understand the forgotten corners of the world. From the streets of Hanoi, to the genocide of Rwanda, the war in Lebanon and voodoo ceremonies in Haiti, Ali MC is beaten and shot at as he travels the globe in an attempt to better understand the so-called Third World. Described as a ‘punk rock travel book’, The Eyeball End steps away from the safety net of well-worn travel guides, taking the reader on a challenging journey into the human condition. The Eyeball End is sold out and is currently only available as a free download.

Tail Eat Snake
Ali MC is currently working on a second book, Tail Eat Snake, a rock-n-reggae journey throughout Aboriginal communities in the deserts of Australia. Along the way, he confronts a personal legacy of colonisation left by his grandfather: first contact, stolen children and a radical conversion that would change everything.
