How We Disappeared
by Jing-Jing Lee
HOW WE DISAPPEARED by JING-JING LEE
Women’s Prize Longlist #11
Singapore in 1943 and Singapore in 2000.
A story about family and tradition and war and hope and separation and secrets and lies and protecting those we love and death and loss and imprisonment.
I love this book. I loved the descriptions of the places and the way village life was described. I loved the characters; Kevin and Wang Di are so special and they will definitely stay with me. I loved the way the writer told such a shocking and heartbreaking story without sensationalism or pity.
A very special book. Definitely in my personal shortlist.
