Sinossi

"It is in the silence that I remember you,Softly whispering in my ear,Like the rustling of leaves on a cold winter night,The stories of a bygone year.
 
It is in the silence that I remember you,By the fireplace crackling through the night,The glow of its embers wrap me warm,Like the blanket of your eyes.
 
It is in the silence that I remember you,Whilst the snow piles up my sill,The last leaf strains against the branches, white,And I wonder, do you remember me still?"

A History of Amnesia

Alfian Sa'at

Unapologetic, unafraid and unyielding, Alfian’s second collection of verse delves in greater depth the concerns in his first volume and moves into reclaiming our collective history and memory. 
 
 
In mining our psyche, he casts light where whispers and shadows lurk. He draws inspiration from censored histories, subsumed myths and invokes imagined voices from the exiled, demanding of the reader to witness the ubiquitous ideological fictions that surround us. 
 
 
This is one of the most dissonant and penetrating voices in Singapore poetry. 
 
 
• A History of Amnesia is listed in the notable books list by the Kiriyama Pacific Rim Book Award (administered by University of San Francisco). 
• A History of Amnesia is also shortlisted for Singapore Literature Prize in 2004.

The Poetry of Suicide - Pure...

Abraham Lincoln, Samuel Taylor...

Life has the capacity of great moments and attainment, of lives well-lived, both fulfilling for ourselves and those around us.  But for others life is arduous, there is no spark to ignite the curiosity, to explore a stability and a growth for their lives.   
Indeed, their lives, in their own eyes, become almost meaningless, their sense of themselves subsumed under a myriad of problems, whether real or imagined. 
Seismic events in their lives might crush them.  The loss of a loved one for instance.  Coping is difficult, support is hard to find, and isolation abounds.  We never really know the reason, or the motivation, but one final, dreadful way out is the solution. 
In this volume our authors explore stories that help us understand and recognise a tragic circumstance.
