Best New Singaporean Short Stories: Volume Two by Jason Erik Lundberg
3.0
this is a hard book to review just because it’s such an eclectic mix of stories, but i guess it’s meant to be. it did expose me to a lot of new singaporean authors though. i realised i have never read a piece of joshua ip’s writing. also it really shows the trends in singlit like foreigners/immigrants and class divide and So so so much sex i think we are a very sexually repressed people.
