Notes from an Even Smaller Island Humphreys Neil
Knowing nothing of Singapore in the 1990s, a young Englishman, Neil Humphreys, arrives in the land of "air-conned" shopping centres and Lee Kuan Yew. First published in 2001, Notes from an Even Smaller Island became an extraordinary success, selling tens of thousands of copies. From the aunties in the hawker centres to expats dressed as bananas, from Singlish to kiasuism, and from Singaporeans at home to Singaporeans abroad, Humphreys explores all aspects of Singaporean life, taking in the sights, dissecting the culture and illuminating each place and person with his perceptive and witty observations, Written by someone who is at once both insider and outsider, the book is a wonderfully funny and disarmingly honest portrait of Singapore and its people.
