As long ago as 1998 the Oxford Companion to New Zealand Literature described Michael OLeary as a publisher, poet, novelist, performer and bookseller who has made a colourful contribution to the literary scene. His Earl of Seacliff Art Workshop imprint has published around 170 books his own prolific output (the Companion noted that Michaels own prose owes something to Joyce and Beckett) and many other writers, alternative and mainstream.
In recent years Michael has completed masters and doctoral studies in New Zealand publishing and literature, and has continued to write, publish and sell books from his seaside earldom at Paekakariki. Die Bibel includes a generous selection of Michaels poems, which express his feelings and pay tribute to extraordinary people and events in his life.
