Provocative sonnets challenging sexuality and norms.

Jee Leong Koh's "Payday Loans" offers a collection of sonnets that might resonate with you if you're drawn to poetic works that challenge societal norms and explore sexuality with boldness. The inclusion of a banned poem adds a layer of rebellion, and the conversational preface and interview give depth to the poems, inviting you to ponder the fluidity of desire and the constraints of conventions.

Description

Warning: in 2006 the Singapore government banned the reading of Koh’s poem “Come on, straight boy, and make gay love with me.” That poem is now available, with 29 other sonnets, in a beautiful new edition by Math Paper Press, which includes an interview with Jee Leong Koh, and a new preface by Joshua Ip. Don’t read this book if you do not wish to have sex with your sex. Don’t read this book if you do.
