Overview

This book is a book about a dwelling place. The house on Karikal Lane. The Kandang with its birds and its whistle. The pew in the Church of the Holy Family on Chapel Road at six o'clock on a Sunday morning. The kopitiam at the end of the Mass, with the kopi steam rising and the news of the community circulating in delight. The un-metalled road with the biji saga trees. The beach at Katong before the reclamation took it. The swing in the garden that borrowed the sky. All of these were dwelling places - places where the human heart found shelter in the specific forms of love and habit and daily practice that Mama and Papa gave their grandchildren, freely and without calculation, in the years between 1967 and 1975.
