Co-Winner of the Global Filipino Award for best poetry book, Puti/White explores the past in places buried under layers of shifting reality. Here a poet searches for her lost roots - partly remembered, partly imagined - where language questions the everyday and probes the persistent difficulties of preserving the personal from the pull of the public world. these poems seek to capture the voices that lie within, those engagements of the particular with the universal that spark moments of grace.
