Have I Got Something to Tell You

By Malachi Edwin Vethamani

Book Overview

Poignant and provocative, a collection of stories that explore loneliness and longing, love and resolutions Women torn between their marriage and their emancipated lives. A young boy's memory of 13 May 1969 still flavoured with the slightly salted taste of cream crackers. Mixed-race couples divided by the walls of race and religion. Gay men's love still incomprehensible to their families. A sex-addict coming to terms with his own demons. A bumbling spirit complicating the attempt to fulfil a death wish. Taking the reader from post-independent Malaysia to the early decades of the twenty-first century and the Covid-19 pandemic years, here are stories that delve into the complexities of family life, sexuality, and identity, conflicts that are typical in contemporary Asian societies, yet also so universal.
