Another gems stolen from The BIG BAD WOLF. It's a compilation of creative writing by 30 Singaporean women which consist of dramas, short stories and poetry.
It highlights the life of the women in Singapore. Their relationship in work, with their husband, with their kids, with their parents and the society. Very thought provoking
As with these type of book, I find that some stories would hold my interest while some would just fall flat.
I like "The Matchmaker", a drama that highlight more and more Singapore woman stayed single and the reason why.
I don't like "Bandong" as the story was too confusing and consist of too many four letters word though the words are there to make the story a more realistic feel.
Overall, this book is quite good.
