    Singapore is exposed in all of its noir glory with scintillating stories from the very best of the city\’s authors. Through Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan\’s anthology Singapore Noir, Singapore\’s best contemporary authors have come together to help showcase Singapore in its guts and glory. This is a Singapore rarely explored in Western literature – until now. The writings explore the quirky and dark complexities of Singapore through stories set in distinct neighborhoods within the city. Join Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan, Colin Goh, and Damon Chua as they unfold the intense, inky, and nebulous side of the Lion City through a reading and discussion.
