Burn After Dawn


Publisher: Landmark Books
S$22.50
  • From the gap of two generations, a young Singaporean poet interrogates the victors, vanquished and victims of Singapore’s surrender in 1945. The weighty records of the Japanese Occupation are questioned: air raids, the Battle of Opium Hill, the Alexandra Hospital massacare, Sook Ching, Kempeitai anarchy, comfort women stations.

    These, bound up with terrible family accounts, are examined through poetic lenses, sometimes magnified, other times widened, but unremittingly focused.
