    • AN ANTHOLOGY OF TRADITIONAL MALAY LITERATURE

      AN ANTHOLOGY OF TRADITIONAL MALAY LITERATURE

      by Muhammad Haji Salleh (Editor)

      This anthology of traditional and classical works is a collection of poetry and fiction, legal digests, epistles and religious treatises, narrated, sung or written in the Malay language, in the Malay Archipelago. This language was and is widespread in the Malay Peninsula, Singapore, Sabah, Sarawak, Brunei, in Kalimantan, (Indonesian Borneo), including Pontianak, Ketapang, Sintang, Banjarmasin, Kutai and Samarinda. It was the lingua franca for most of Insular Southeast Asia and even in parts of Continental Southeast Asia, and to be found in Southern Thailand, in the provinces of Satun, Patani and Nakorn Sithammarat, and some islands in Southern Philippines. This time-span of traditional Malay literature covers a period from the earliest beginnings of oral works, through the inscriptions on stone and metal, and through further developments in oral storytelling, the advent of writing. In the decades of the 18th and 19th centuries a collision with western colonial powers and their cultures has resulted in a literature that reflected this traumatic confrontation and also, the so-called ‘modern’ elements. Along with this too we notice the rise of the new genres of the report, the travelogue, the autobiography and biography, which interestingly are prominent antecedents of modern literature.

      RACKET BOY - WHERE'S MY COUNTRY

      by Philip George, Geetha K

      Do you marvel at people who seemingly have it all only to drop everything for life in a remote village? Have you wondered about leaving your roots for migration to the unknown? ‘Fit only for climbing coconut trees.’ The mockery invented by Philip’s father because he was badminton-mad and useless (said father) at all else, lingered with him through school in Malaysia. It travelled with him on an Aeroflot to England in 1970, aged 18, functioning onadrenaline. It stuck through his navigation of parochial middle England – caring for patientsin a mental hospital, law practice, sports, and relationships. Toughened by an Indian father and a Chinese coach, lifted by a messiah-like Englishman and grounded by a Labrador soulmate, Racket Boy – Where’s My Country, explores Philip’s life over six decades. From being ordered by the British government to leave England, accosted in Bombay, mugged in Barcelona to horse-trading with a petroleum giant in Ecuador and thrilling in a World Cup in military-ruled Argentina, to list a few highlights. Philip is now a spectator in the hills of Tuscany, more than just fit to be climbing coconut trees!

Death and life, pain and healing, laughter and tears - however we choose to remember them, they remain forever unforgettable. 20 cases, 20 writers. Regardless of whether we are healthcare workers or patients, our humanity ultimately remains the same. Just one more case - that unforgettable one.

      DIAM DALAM GEMPITA

      by FAZLEENA HISHAMUDDIN, FINN ANUAR

      Women are mysterious creatures. The behaviour and characteristics of women can often be perceived as enigmatic and unpredictable. The intricacies of their world are often misunderstood and disregarded, leading women to suppress their emotions. The book "Diam Dalam Gempita" presents 14 short stories addressing social topics such as taboo subjects, discrimination, stigma, freedom of speech, injustice, and the status and role of women in the contemporary era. However, there is no intention to falsely accuse an individual. In this context, both men and women are regarded as equals. Readers will be immersed in topics such as the chaotic yet majestic world of motherhood, the epic pandemic, the legal system for girls, the poverty of menstruation, child marriages, human trafficking, the technological capability to conquer humans, sex and intimation, and the role and struggle of husbands. The stories would open readers up to a whole new view of gender roles and how far we have come. A fluid and modern style of writing that is easy to read. Thought-provoking and bold, Diam Dalam Gempita delves into one’s realities.
