Here, colourful corridors twist into labyrinths and a mysterious drink triggers a rose-smelling flood. As he winds his way through this strange town, he finds himself teaching Singlish, joining a Mad Kopi Party, and volunteering at a Meet-the-MP session. But when he crosses paths with kueh officers from the Security Agency, getting home becomes the biggest challenge of all.ABOUT THE AUTHORLing Yuan’s fiction has been shortlisted for the Chautauqua Janus Prize, Black Warrior Review Fiction Prize, and the Kinsman Quarterly Winds of Asia Award.
