EILEEN TABIOS REVIEWED BY FEMINIST REVIEW!

Eileen Tabios' THE LIGHT SANG AS IT LEFT YOUR EYES is reviewed by the Feminist Review. Click on excerpt below for the whole review:

Traversing between these modes, the text explores mourning, political ambivalence and accountability, sexuality, international sex trade, pensive pastoral scenery, and hope. // There is no doubt Tabios is a contemporary master of poetry. Her playful yet serious musings betray experience, reflexive meditation, and vulnerability. In the appendix, Tabios wishes to create poetry that inspire readers to seek knowledge about the Philippines, as do students who learn French, Greek, or Latin whilst studying the canon. This book is successful in doing so.
