Join us for an intimate afternoon with award-winning author Josephine Chia! 🌿
Following the release of the new edition of Kampong Spirit, Josephine Chia reflects on what her years of writing have taught her, and how she has turned her childhood, heritage and challenges into creative fuel.
The storied author first immersed readers in her childhood kampong of Potong Pasir with her memoir Kampong Spirit—Gotong Royong, which won the Singapore Literature Prize for non-fiction and was followed by its sequel Goodbye My Kampong!
Besides her novels that draw on her Peranakan heritage, Ayam Buah Keluak and the Art of Writing shares her reflections on living creatively, even amid adversity.
