Read this book a few years ago, can’t rmb when or how, but am glad I picked it up again because even having read them before, the short stories are still fun and thought-provoking! I think this book is about how one finds oneself, and how does one navigate around “being Singaporean”. The themes explored may not be typical of Singapore (LGBT, sexuality, crime & deviance) but they are essentially part of us and that’s what makes the characters so interesting
