SWF 2025 Book Launch – The Prau with the Silent Soul

Join us for the launch of Faisal Tehrani’s latest novel, The Prau with The Silent Soul. This event features a discussion on the book’s exploration of love, family legacy, and the Malayan people’s enduring connection to the sea.

Faisal weaves themes of transgressive love and intergenerational trauma into the story of Wefada Marwan, a woman caught between family responsibility and forbidden romance.

Be part of the conversation, meet the author, and dive into the novel’s rich cultural and emotional layers.

This book launch is part of SWF 2025 and is co-presented with the National Library Board.
