Second Collection

We are unique people - the total (or not) of every experience we have been through. The Second Collection is also a collection of unique stories intricately woven in poetry. Maybe you will relate to some. Maybe you will not. But what you will experience is the emotions - pain, joy, grief, fear - that the stories in this book hold. Some of them might bring a tear to your eyes, others might remind you of good old days. There is something for those who simply like to ride the rollercoaster of life. Alas, there is something in here for everyone. The poet genuinely depicts her intricate relationships and intriguing encounters with the people around her, her beloved father in particular. The profound feelings expressed, the sophistication in diction and her love and affection in life make it a good read. An anthology not to be missed! Maggie Hiu-kin NG, English Panel Chairperson in Hong Kong Nalini s writing is rich with melancholy, transporting the reader into a nostalgic landscape of memories. But I also find it uplifting in the way it delicately weaves in threads of hope, love, and sometimes playful humor ultimately making each poem a life-affirming read.
