Man in a Landscape (1960) is the third poetry collection by Australian author and poet Colin Thiele.

[1] In his review of the poetry collection in Westerly Malcolm Leven wrote: "Mr. Thiele's poems do not rock our ears with motion or swamp our eyes with light, nor do they, at a different level, strike up a hallucinatory ringing in the conceptual spheres.

Thus the fascination of image cadenzas and concept improvisations seems to be unavailable to the turgid, thick-rimmed cells of his poetic imagination, and the poems seem more a parasol of violent verbs lowered over a vague and struggling sense of a situation instinct with movement and life."

He then went on to allow a little praise for the author when stating that some poems, "especially 'Bert Schultz', are the clearest expressions in the book of Mr. Thiele's attitude towards his poetry and its subjects — Australia and the Aussie.

He feels part of the continent, moulded by its contours, sustained by its rugged power.
