Local literary magazine, Ceriph – known for promoting a refreshing selection of emerging writers from Singapore – will unveil the latest issue with a poetry and prose reading.

This issue highlights the poetic form and its potential for “local uses” – with Singlish or without, rooted in familiar spaces or flung far into space. These exciting new works continue to critically question and celebrate the idiosyncrasies, grievances and cadences of the local tongue, without being restricted by it.

After the reading, join the editors and contributors for an informal discussion of Ceriph and other literary magazines, and the quizzical shape of Singaporean literature.
