Description

In this her sixth collection of poetry where the real, virtual and literary mix, Heng Siok Tian travels through landscapes and explores relationships of family, friendships, the familiar and the foreign. With her signature simplicity and honesty, she tenderly ferries her deceased mother to the realm of memory while she reflects on the commotions of life at home and abroad. Through these, she reminds readers that the past contains limitless potential for journeys of the imagination, and that nostalgia can be both gentle and powerful.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
