đź‘‚Return to the notes of The Sound of SCH at Casual Poet Libraryđź‘‚

First published at a time when mental health was still taboo, The Sound of SCH went on to win the Singapore Literature Prize and opened doors for more open conversations.

Now, a decade later, Danielle Lim’s pioneering work returns in a new edition—at a moment when mental health remains just as urgent and deeply relevant.

📖 Join author Danielle Lim in conversation with moderator Margaret Ong as they reflect on how writing, care, and conversations around mental health have shifted—and the work that still lies ahead.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Can a life weave along through the same notes and yet come to play forth different sounds?

Told with unflinching honesty, The Sound of SCH is a true story of resilience and sacrifice—tracing Danielle Lim’s family journey with schizophrenia against the backdrop of a changing Singapore.
