The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye
by Sonny Liew
A fascinating way to learn Singapore's history and politics. Comic artist Sonny Liew interviews fellow comic artist Charlie Chan Hock Chye about his whole life and career making political cartoons. Liew illustrates the interview and shows Chye's comic pages as they enter the timeframe. Liew adds context annotations around the margins, and notes from Chye about his own work– which lets readers unfamiliar with Singapore's history follow the messages in the strips.
Beautiful art and complex history– Singapore is an interesting experiment even in dry history recounting. Illustrated here in graphic form (and with time-specific political commentary), it comes alive as a dynamic and controversial scene.
