Isa Kamari
Singapore: Epigram Books, 2013
ISBN: 9789810767822
The Tower tells the story of Ilham, an architect who is visiting the tower which he helped to design and build. As he climbs the tower with his clerk-of-works, Ilham reflects upon his life, revealing a deep sense of alienation and loss. What will he find when he eventually reaches the top? From Cultural Medallion winner Isa Kamari comes a masterful allegorical tale of success and failure, which is translated for the first time into English by Alfian Sa'at, his debut work of translation.
