Details
These are the letters of 20 year old Len Jones to his mentor and would-be partner Mona Lovell. The letters begin with his principled stand as a conscientious objector and describe life in forestry and other occupations during the Second World War. Like a number of COs, he eventually took a more active role in the fight against fascism by becoming a non-arms bearing medic. It was in Haifa that, much to Mona’s dismay, he met and married Judith Grossman, with whom he returned to Britain to set up as an artist, now known as Jonah Jones. Jones records in his own words not just the story of his early life as it happened, as he changed from gauche Len Jones to artist Jonah Jones, but also the story of the Home Front, of conscientious objection, and of the tensions in Palestine, which resonate still today.
