Synopsis
Description :

Malchin Testament: Malaysian Poems is an anthology of Malaysian poems in English which introduces and showcases works of Malaysian poets that cover a period of over sixty years, from the beginning of Malaysian literature in English to present day. It brings together voices of over 50 poets from multicultural and multilingual Malaysia appropriating the English language for their own expression. Malchin Testament: Malaysian Poems brings together works from various sources, poems from early literary journals and anthologies and from new online sources, besides the traditional published volumes of poetry. 

This volume fills a gap since Edwin Thumboo’s The Second Tongue (1976), a landmark volume on Malaysian and Singaporean poetry in English. Libraries and many courses on Malaysian literature in English will benefit from Malchin Testament: Malaysian Poems. A volume of poetry that is essential reading for anyone who has an interest in Malaysian poetry in English.
 - Ronald Carter, Professor of English, University of Nottingham, UK.
