This collection of 25 stories were written with a fondness for Singapore and its people. The author draws from her childhood years growing up in 1970s Singapore, and all these years later, there isn’t a day when she does not recall a place, event, person or object from that time in her life.
Though written by an outsider – this collection, like those previously published and those yet to be written, add to the melting pot of Singapore literature.
- Stories are drawn from author’s experience of living in Singapore
- Each story Is simple yet manages to flesh out the quirks of the main character through a clever use of descriptive language
- Good pace of writing that is light yet very engaging
- An entertaining and fun read
