DUNIA SEBUAH PASAR RAYA/ THE WORLD IS A SHOPPING MALL
published by Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka,2025.
Poetry has the power to cross borders, cultures, and languages. Zurinah Hassan, Malaysia's National Laureate, is one of Southeast Asia's most distinguished poets. Her works have been translated into English, Spanish, French, Russian, and Japanese, introducing her poetic voice to readers across the world.
Her poetry collection, The World Is a Shopping Mall, is a profound reflection on consumerism, globalization, faith, memory, and the enduring values that define our humanity.In an age where material success often overshadows compassion, these poems ask timeless questions:What cannot be bought? What gives life its true meaning?
Deeply rooted in Malaysian culture yet universal in vision, Zurinah Hassan's poetry invites readers from every corner of the world to rediscover the beauty of reflection, empathy, and the human spirit.
The World Is a Shopping Mall is more than a book of poems—it is an invitation to think, to feel, and to see the world with renewed wisdom.
"The finest poetry does not merely describe the world—it transforms the way we see it."
