Prakriti Foundation in association with The Park is delighted to invite you
for the launch of Witchcraft, a book of poems by Sharanya Manivannan
on Friday, March 13 2009 at 6 p.m.
Venue: Leather Bar, The Park, Anna Salai, Chennai – 600 006
Dress code: Black
Praise for the book:
“Sensuous and spiritual, delicate and dangerous and as full as the moon reflected in a knife,” Ng Yi-Sheng, winner of the 2008 Singapore Literature Prize
‘Bloody, sexy, beguiling as in a dance with veils,” from the foreword by Indran Amirthanayagam, winner of the 1994 Paterson Prize and 2006 Juegos Florales
[Update: ABOUT THE DRESS CODE
I’ve been getting enquiries about the dress code. Why have one? Because we’re poking fun at the “Witchcraft” connotations. That’s why Friday the 13th and black outfits. Please remember that it’s *black* and not *black tie*, so wear a tee shirt by all means. It’s fine. :) ]
Wishing you the very best, Sharanya. Fly high up in the skies…
I’m just so confident everyone’s going to love, love, love your baby. How can they not? It’s stellar, Sharanya. Good luck!
good luck! and detailed report required. this either means you’ll have to stay sober or blog it asap. ;-)
so,how was the launch?
ps:you have read the ‘unaccustomed earth’,haven’t you?
Congratulations! Is Witchcraft available for sale in the U.S.? Is there a way I can order it from your publisher? I came here via the Metroplus column in the Madras editions of the Hindu but was disappointed not to find info on purchases.
Best regards,
Hari Chengalath
