Seeking An Audience: A Symposium on Singapore Literature in English
Jointly organised by the NBL and NTU’s Centre for Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, this is a Symposium for all who promote and have an interest in Singapore Literature in English.

Lee Tzu Pheng and Robert Yeo will open the symposium with a dialogue about their experiences as writers, recalling the heady days of the sixties when they and the most promising poets/writers of their generation had their beginnings, and who are now established writers with substantial bodies of work. The Symposium will also feature the generation of writers who followed them. The day will end with a cocktail reception with poetry readings and a musical performance developed by Stella Kon, author of Emily of Emerald Hill.

Admission is free. To register, please select ‘add to cart’. Registration closes on 24 October 2008. For enquiries or registration by organisations/institutions, please contact Ms Sharon Chen at 6333 7912 or email Sharon_CHEN@nlb.gov.sg

You Will Not Be Forgotten
Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam
5 Jan 1926 - 30 Sep 2008

For the sword outwears its sheath, and the soul wears out the breast. And the heart must pause to breathe, and love itself have rest.
