In this anthology, she offers the beating hearts of a cannibal picking up a ghoul at Tekka market, a Vietnamese–American grieving in Alaska, an HDB cleaner’s love for her brother and his 4D-predicting dragon fish, a District 10 teenager coming to grips with her Catholic grandfather’s legacy... Poignant slices of heart — tender, done and spoiled.
