Farah
Farah is finding it very hard to write about Farah. For a start, she rarely reads fiction (if you don’t count that brief moment of madness involving Mills & Boon books in secondary school) and now devours non-fiction like it’s going out of style. Be it about military history, exotic travels, pandemics, airplane crashes, technical diving, lost civilisations or the drug trade, she’ll lap it up.
Since her life reads more like a ghastly chick lit novel than a top rate adventure, she lives vicariously through those who risk life and limb in pursuit of something unfathomably dangerous and lived to tell the tale. She will also pick up anything with the phrase ‘lose fat!’ in its title most readily.

Would appreciate it if someone could look into the RSS feed. I haven’t been able to subscribe onto High Browse Online since the swapover and I hate playing email ping-pong with the Helpdesk who seem to excel in giving the standard response (they have stopped replying after 2 emails) and not really testing it at all from a user point of view.

Dear sir/ mdm,
This is a long shot…
I have stopped visiting the libraries for more than 3 decades.
Now that i am a father of teenagers (13 to 17 yrs of age), I feel the need to inculcate them the need of readings (beyond the academic stuffs).
This is especially so on Chinese books since we are ethnically Chinese.
Can you recommend some books (in Chinese) on Singapore; Chinese culture; Chinese traditions; or, contempory Chinese books fr China/ Taiwan/ HK?
How can I find them in the libraries?
Thank you very much.
Rgds,
Robert
