Download and read online ebook The Singer and Other Poems write by Kim Cheng Boey. This book was released on 2022-02-15. The Singer and Other Poems available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In this new collection by a seasoned master, Kim Cheng Boey moves between Singapore and Australia, youth and middle age - places and times rendered in vivid, sensory detail - to give a haunting exploration of memory and the emigrant experience: departures and arrivals; family and home; exile, longing and loss. 'When I was younger, poetry carried me posthaste, high on the fuel of experience and freshness of thought. Now I move in slow time, listen to the poem as I carry it, and let memory tell me where to go.' -- Kim Cheng Boey 'In this work of a mature artist, Kim Cheng Boey's characteristic style - literary, allusive, with a flâneur's sensibility - is on full display.' -- Shirley Geok-lin Lim

Now a second book is here with more witty double takes on well-loved fairy tales such as Thumbelina and The Little Mermaid. Read these clever poems from top to bottom and they mean one thing. Then reverse the lines and read from bottom to top and they mean something else–it is almost like magic! A celebration of sight, sound, and story, this book is a marvel to read again and again.

"Remarkable."—The Washington Post "This mind-bending poetry is accompanied by Masse's equally intelligent, equally amusing art."—Time Out New York for Kids What’s brewing when two favorites—poetry and fairy tales—are turned (literally) on their heads? It’s a revolutionary recipe: an infectious new genre of poetry and a lovably modern take on classic stories. First, read the poems forward (how old-fashioned!), then reverse the lines and read again to give familiar tales, from Sleeping Beauty to that Charming Prince, a delicious new spin. Witty, irreverent, and warm, this gorgeously illustrated and utterly unique offering holds a mirror up to language and fairy tales, and renews the fun and magic of both.
