In the age of noise and distraction, how does one find the time and interest to read short stories? Are stories even relevant or practical in our time? Are they necessary?
Stories are, in fact, essential to life, in how they impart knowledge, bridge connections, and break the skin of the world to reveal its many beating hearts.
Come, join O Thiam Chin for a discussion and reading as he talks about the pleasure in reading and writing short stories, and how they can be not just an escape from the tedium and tyranny of life, but also a deeper immersion into every kind of experience, lived and felt.
About the author
O Thiam Chin is the author of four novels and seven story collections, including A Thing of Fun.
