Description

The poems explore the implications of silence - the literal silence where a knowledgeable poet found no inclination to write, for more than 10 years; and also the metaphorical, the quietness of detachment accompanying the maturing interior life. Beginning by redefining the meaning of writing, the poet relocates and reviews certain attitudes presented in her first collection, 'Prospect Of A Drowning' and moves to an intense realization of the strengths that make the commitment to living possible. This is a cohesive collection that is meant to be read in sequence. Lee Tzu Pheng was awarded the SEA WRITE Award in 1987 and received the Cultural Medallion for Literature in 1985.
