Ministry of Moral Panic
Written by Amanda Lee Koe
Winner of the Singapore Literature Prize for Fiction 2014 Longlisted for the Frank O’Connor International Short Story Award 2014
Selected by The Business Times as one of the Top 10 English Singapore books from 1965–2015
Winner of Best Fiction Title for Singapore Book Awards 2016
Published: November 2016 (New Edition)
Heartfelt and sexy, Amanda Lee Koe’s stories encompass a skewed world fraught with prestige anxiety, moral relativism, sexual frankness, and the improbable necessity of human connection. Told in strikingly original prose, these are fictions that plough, relentlessly, the possibilities of understanding Singapore and her denizens discursively, off-centre. Ministry of Moral Panic is an extraordinary debut collection and the introduction of a revelatory voice.
