Fiction

Satirical and sympathetic, political and personal, A Certain Exposure traces the adolescences of twin brothers Andrew and Brian, culminating in the explosive events leading to Andrew’s tragic death. This is a classic coming-of-age tale doubled across two vividly individual brothers, who struggle to navigate a complex tangle of relationships and coercive forces, cinematically interwoven with the yearnings and fears of an ensemble of mothers, fathers, cousins, friends and lovers both false and true. This wide-ranging debut beautifully presents the resonances and the ghosts of lost possibilities, as well as a gripping story of hope and betrayal. © 2014 Jolene Tan, Lyrics to “I Could Be Dreaming” are copyright © 1999 by Jeepster Recordings and published by Sony/ATV Music,and are used by permission only, Published in paper format in Singapore by Epigram Books, recorded by Storyside 2020.
