'SQ21-Singapore Queer of the 21st Century' by Ng Yi-Sheng

My Afterthoughts

No, it's not another 'gay book' or some sob, sob story. And it's not there to change your lifestyle. But it's there to change your point of view on people in this community, a marginalized minority group. SQ21 is a collection of 15 stories - a celebration of life and love. Love of the forms you and I know - between parents and children, among siblings, between good friends, and of course, between 2 people of the same gender. Written in different styles but in the familiar Singapore English [not Singlish], it opens our eyes, hearts and minds to know people. I love the collection - some stories are heart-wrenching, most, heartwarming. We can all share and identify with the struggles told. After all, emotions are universal. And so is love.

My rating: ****
