Just got this in the mail today (and yes, how very last minute):
Select Books invites you to a launch of Cyril Wong's poetry book:
LIKE A SEED WITH ITS SINGULAR PURPOSE
6.30pm, (Fri) 18 Aug 2006 at Select Books,
Tanglin Shopping Centre (Singapore)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"His poems are indeed seeds: insistent, alive and burgeoning with a pulse that marks him as Singapore's foremost confessional poet." - The Straits Times
"His use of language and form has a mix of traditions, ethnicities and even gender but most clearly, it...sculpts a space for the reader to think, baffle over and be elated." - The Business Times
You can also buy the book online at http://www.selectbooks.com.sg now!
So, for those who missed the launch at Books Actually, if you still want to meet Cyril, you can go to this one.
