Readings From Readings at Alexis

Readings from Readings celebrates Kuala Lumpur's longest-running live literature event. Founded in 2005 by Bernice Chauly, Readings provides a regular space in which local writers and readers can connect in an informal atmosphere. Bernice Chauly and Sharon Bakar select the best poetry, fiction and creative non-fiction in this first anthology which demonstrate the sheer variety and range of voices that make up new Malaysian writing.

Liyana Dizzy and Priya K are two of KL's most promising young poets, Uthaya Sankar demonstrates his skill at social satire when he writes of a cat with political ambitions, Nora Adam writes of the perils of marriage and Saras Manickam's story tells of a child's tenacity in the wake of parental absence. Come buy the book Readings from Readings at a discount and listen to these poems, stories and much more.

Books will be on sale.
