You Jin
Singapore: Epigram Books, 2014
ISBN: 9789814615020
How will a young Singaporean writer with an infant son cope with life in this strange, often hostile, environment, in a time before the Internet and cheap air travel? With her trademark chatty style and wry humour, You Jin chronicles her encounters with viciously bored expat wives, mistreated migrant workers, and foreigners who unwittingly fall foul of draconian local laws, as well as her many misadventures negotiating an unfamiliar culture. What strategies will she need to survive life in the desert?
