Publisher's Synopsis

In this new collection by a seasoned master, Kim Cheng Boey moves between Singapore and Australia, youth and middle age--places and times rendered in vivid, sensory detail ñ to give a haunting exploration of memory and the emigrant experience: departures and arrivals; family and home; exile, longing and loss. In this work of a mature artist, Kim Cheng Boey's characteristic style--literary, allusive, with a flaneur's sensibility--is on full display.--Shirley Geok-lin Lim

Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Asian & Asian American Studies.
