SQ21: Singapore Queers in the 21st Century
SGD 17.10 (Usual Price: SGD 19.00)

We recommend these other titles:
The Boy With the Flower That Grew Out of His Ass
SGD9.00

(Usual Price: SGD 19.00)An anthology of eight unforgettable tales, We R Family celebrates the family in its colourful diversity from the whispers of homes in nameless cities to the metropolises of Singapore, New York, Mumbai and Addis Ababa to the suburbs of Indiana and Connecticut.
And the Walls Come Crumbling Down
SGD 17.10
(Usual Price: SGD 19.00)In 2003, a young woman leaves home without telling her family that she is not coming back. She spends the next six years moving from house to house and living hand-to-mouth; at first with her lover, and then alone.
