This book is the result of years of wandering through different countries and languages. Hence the title: Gods of Babel. Whatever words were used, they must have been worshipped by some. Music, Judith Mok's shared passion in life with literature, encouraged her to write the prose poems in an extroverted manner, as if with a rhythm and melody ready for stage-rendering. The poems that ensue from the prose poems are an introverted mirror image of the same subject. The sporadic use of foreign words is a playful way of pointing towards different worlds in sound. Travel, love, self, myth, are all subservient to the Voice, which remains the most important subject.
