MPH Breakfast Club for LitBloggers 8

GAVIN YAP and DZOF AZMI at
MPH Bangsar Village II on September 23, 2007

The 8th MPH Breakfast Club for LitBloggers on SUNDAY, September 23, 2007 will feature theatre actor-director-newspaper columnist Gavin Yap, whose first book, tentatively titled What’s the Point? (MPH Publishing, 2008), a book of observations and opinions, will be published sometime in 2008. Yap’s latest production is the acclaimed British playwright Sarah Kane’s last play, 4.48 Psychosis (Methuen, 2000), with a cast that includes Susan Lankester, Samantha Schubert and Malik Taufiq. Kane battled clinical depression her whole life before killing herself at the age of 28 in 1999.

We will also be featuring mathematician-turned-television scriptwriter and newspaper columnist Dzof Azmi. Though logic is the antithesis of emotion, Dzof Azmi’s theory is that people need both to make sense of life’s vagaries and contradictions.

Gavin Yap will be introduced by Eric Forbes while Dzof Azmi will be introduced by Janet Tay. Janet Tay will be facilitating the session.
