"Each voice is singular, every page yields surprises." -Wong May, author of In the Same Light


A bold showing of voice, uniqueness, nerve, and precision from a new generation of Singapore poets.


Wrapping itself, tasting, luxuriating in the recurrent themes of the body, family, sexuality, spirituality, neo-colonialism, geographies, positionalities, identity, and nationalism, New Singapore Poetries brims with the ambition and talent of 18 of Singapore's newest poetic voices, many hitherto unpublished.


Showcasing an expansive body of work by each poet, New Singapore Poetries is a breathtaking testament to the imagination and nerve of what poetry in Singapore can be-an interrogation of the very nature of what constitutes a poem; a straddling of national identity and personal grief; a processing and yet remembrance of erased history and rewritten trajectories-a way to tell the truth anew.


Mired against the backdrop of Singapore the country, Singapore the city-state republic, and 'Singapore' the concept, bearing witness to the past and crystallizing the present, New Singapore Poetries architects futures yet unseen, but yearned for.
