A Will to Live

Stuart Rees' poetry explores the meaning of peace, the cruelties of war, the inspiration derived from the natural environment and the highs experienced from family loves and lasting relationships.

'Stuart Rees's poems are ablaze with a passion for world peace and social justice, and they offer pungent analysis of the sources of conflict in all its guises and disguises. His distinctive poetic voice is fresh, honest and urgently timely.' - Professor Bob White, Australian Research Centre of Excellence for the History of Emotions, University of Western Australia.
