Tak Tun (Malaysian Literature Series)

Tak Tun, Abdul Ghafar Ibrahim's (AGI) second volume, securely establishes him as one of the major contemporary Malaysian poets. This volume extends and broadens the TRI-V (verbal, vocal and visual) traits featured in his books of poetry My Loard Moon Kite, That's That, Never Vanish - a willingness to experiment with form and language, humour, paradox and empathy- with deeper maturity and greater self assurance. Established AGI may be, but he is certainly not of the establishment: these poems will shock, amaze and delight their reader.
