Maiaruna

Letters to Sylvia Maiaruna

Letters to Sylvia is personal, hence political. A collection of poems on womanhood and self-redefinition carved in bodily experience, affirming existential connection between the mind and the carnal. Letters to Sylvia is celebrating women by challenging internalised patriarchal culture and at the same time, toying with its ideas of femininity and its complexity. This book is an invitation to all women, as in Hélène Cixous' tradition, to write their body as the site to their narratives.
