This volume of poems by Cyril Wong , one of the leading figures of poetry in Singapore, reflects the many ways in which love between two men can unfold, balancing emotional outpourings with meditations on the nature of relationships.
The poetry punctures the sometimes oppressive reality of life in a city that is hypermodern yet far from free and, through twists and turns, ultimately lifts the reader to a place beyond pleasure and pain.
Sensual, anecdotal and, of course, confessional, Infinity Diary charts an evolution in the work of one of Asia's most intimate English-language poets.
About author(s): Born in Singapore in 1977, Cyril Wong is his country's leading confessional poet.
He received the Singapore Literature Prize for Unmarked Treasure and The Lover's Inventory.
