We Are All Alone In This Anyway

An elderly widow fantasises about celebritydom after the death of her husband. An unexpected friendship blossoms between a young boy and his neighbour. A domestic helper hides a dark secret in her employer's home. A troubled man opens his door to a childhood friend. Set in Singapore, this collection explores the complexities of existence and alienation through diverse narratives, while revealing how our deepest pains, while uniquely our own, also reflect a shared human experience of vulnerability, yearning, and the perpetual search for meaning in our lives.
