Peonies into Sambal

Peonies into Sambal is the second poetry collection by Phedora but the first to be debuted under her own name. Phedora penned her journey as a Malaysian of Kadazan and Chinese descent navigating adulthood. Her collection dives into the process of sambal-making by seeking to accept, process, and define the self through finding love, losing hearts, and self-exploration on what it means to find a home.
