Incantations/ Incarcerations

Incantations/Incarcerations is a rumination on ageing, menopause, losing one's children to the world, climate change, and the slow decline of the body.

In this collection, Bernice Chauly will once again chart the unsayable and the confessional, and speak from places where few dare to write from - of the older woman, desire and loneliness, and of the certainty of death.

Chauly is one of Malaysia's most forceful contemporary poets, and remains one of the country's most urgent and necessary voices.
