Singapore: A Biography | Mark Ravinder Frost, Yu-Mei Balasingamchow
4 posts
Brimming with verve and dramatic incident, Singapore: A Biography offers fresh insights into the life story of this island city-state through the personal experiences of the workers, adventurers, rulers and revolutionaries who have shaped its history over the last seven centuries. The authors, drawing on research undertaken in collaboration with the National Museum of Singapore, have woven together ancient chronicles, eyewitness accounts, oral histories and even modern radio and television broadcasts to create a vivid and compelling narrative that brings the past back to life. Grounded in scholarship yet fired by the imagination, this book reveals the Singapore story to have been as rich, diverse and multilayered as the city-state is prosperous, ordered and successful today.

What I was doing yesterday instead of reading. The Singapore govt organises "Singapore Day" once a year in a diff country. This was the first time in CA! There was plenty of Singapore food, entertainment and more, specially flown in from Singapore. It was at Pier 70 in the Dogpatch, and for a country that's known for its clean streets and rules, quite an unexpected venue! But wow the food was amazing and definitely made us think of home!

RealLifeReading So not a bookish post I know! But I did want to say that I'm gonna try to get the October photo challenge post out by today. I know some of you have been wondering about that! Was supposed to co-host w @TheSpinecrackersBookClub but I haven't heard from her for a while (even via email) so I will go ahead and put up the October challenge soon! 8y
