AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'People are dis-located many times during their lives, both from choice and through necessity. Each moving out has varying degrees of grief, joy and hope, all affecting the journey of moving on. This collection has poems about child abuse, domestic violence, relationship breakdown, growing up, moving house, migration, growing old and death. Every poem has something to say about our own lives or of somebody close to us.' [Moving Out, Moving On, n.p.]
