About the Book
From the theme of the lost father-figure in stories, 'Fathers and Sons' and 'Nameless,' to the openness of sexual relationships in the 'Orgy' and 'Two men and a plan', O Thiam Chin daringly explores the contrasting and contemplative facets of daily living and experience in Singapore.
With boldness and ingenuity, he juxtaposes real-life events with a touch of fictional narrative in 'Crash and Burn,' 'Suicide Bomber' and 'Another Day in the Life of a Domestic Helper,' and illuminates the secret lives hidden behind these events.
