edited by ai li
For August we are 2.
1-2-3 press are proud to announce the arrival of the third edition of the cherita : your storybook journal.
You sent ai li such fine and interesting cherita that she was moved to launch edition three of the cherita as two volumes for your late summer reading.
Both find me and where the river bends edited by ai li have emerged with poets from UK, USA, India, New Zealand, Singapore, Romania, Canada, Greece, West Africa, Philippines, Trinidad, Tobago, Australia, Japan and Sri Lanka and 77 poems in the first volume. The second volume also has 77 poems with poets from UK, USA, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Australia, Italy, Ireland and India.
All cherita within are complemented by images selected by ai li to enhance your reading experience. The 154 stories in both volumes are waiting to take you into the world of storytelling at its honest best, so please sit back and relax for an experience that will involve all the senses.
You can also enjoy the first collaborative cherita that ai li has encountered, written with three poets, which further illustrates the flexibility of the form.
Here is an example from where the river bends :-
the sound of temple bells
she closes her eyes
for a moment
when did she get
too old
to pray for love
