A CHRONICLE OF LOST SOULS, MISFITS, AND SINNERS These stories explore transcendence and grief, and the search for redemption. The characters in this anthology are people we all know. People like ourselves-- searching and yearning, often in the wrong places for something meaningful and real. A real-estate agent tries to sell a home to a feuding couple while his own marriage is being tested; a divorcee resigned to drink and watching television rediscovers the pleasures of life with another woman. A mother pays a terrible price when ambition blinds her own parental duty. In these stories, what is excavated and revealed lies at the heart of Singaporean lives.
