Wars - Revolution and Restitution is June Moss' cry of grief after her mother died in 1993. Through poetry, Moss expresses feelings that had long been buried in her psyche but then spontaneously surfaced and seemed to write themselves....
Moss addresses war, capitalism, empires and our unfair class systems past and present which we inherit from birth. She expresses thoughts and feelings that are part and parcel of us all as humans: death, loss of a mother, regrets, friendship and the power of birth and renewal. The book is illustrated with a selection of the author's paintings, which reflect her respect for nature and the people sustained by it but also, as the cover of this book reveals, the suffering of humanity. As a student of the Royal College of Art, her skills speak for themselves.
These are powerful poems of anger and frustration at the inequalities and iniquities that continue to beset our societies. They are not calm bed-time reading, but Moss' deeply inspirational belief and drive for a fairer and more fulfilling existence for us all, are compelling.
