Awekskl



This is a compilation of short stories written in Bahasa Melayu. I got this book when i went to the Annexe Gallery in KL and the alternative bookfest was a blast. The title is pretty catchy and once i had it flipped and read the first page of the first story, i decided to buy it!

The language used is so much different to the typical Malay novels we have now. It is honest, pretty blunt and the style writing is so interesting that i just could not put it down! The stories are so close to heart and one could almost hear the questions to why there are no actions taken to the issues voiced.
