What to expect

Sukhin is a thirty-five-year-old teacher who lives alone. His life consists of reading, working and visiting his parents' to rearrange his piles of "collectibles". He has only one friend, another teacher who has managed to force Sukhin into a friendship by sheer doggedness. While on an errand one afternoon in Chinatown, he encounters a homeless person who recognises him. This chance reunion turns Sukhin's well-planned life upside down, and the pair learns about love and sacrifice over their shared fondness for cake. © 2019 by Yeo Jo-Ann. Published in paper format in Singapore by Epigram Books, recorded by Storyside 2020.
