This episode is brought to you by National Library Board’s One Story, which is a National Reading Movement initiative to make Singapore short stories – originally written in Tamil, Malay, Chinese, or English – available in other languages. The project aims to bring these stories to more readers beyond the language communities that they were originally written for.

We're taking a break from our break to share with you a special episode on Singapore Literature! Following up on our Poetry and Theatre episodes, this time we look at the world of Fiction in Singapore! Specifically, you can:
- Learn about Singapore's first modern English novel
- Hear about some of our more controversial writers and how they found a place in Singapore culture
- Get familiar with the One Story initiative and how it uses literature to bridge across cultures
Stay tuned for Season 5, coming very soon with lots of exciting new features planned, including a new co-host!
