More on Daren Shiau
Description from Wikipedia:
Daren Shiau (b. 1971, Singapore), a novelist, poet, conservationist and lawyer in private practice qualified in Singapore, England and Wales, has been described by The Arts Magazine as "among the most exciting of the post-1965 generation of writers" and cited by the travel guide Lonely Planet: Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei as the author of the "definitive Singapore novel". Daran Shiau was educated in Singapore at Raffles Institution, Raffles Junior College and graduated from the Law faculty of the National University of Singapore on the Dean's List. He was the Visiting Writer in Fall 2003 to the University of California, Berkeley (Center for Southeast Asian Studies).
The National Arts Council's Young Artist of the Year in 2002, Shiau is the author of Heartland (1999, 2002), Peninsular: Archipelagos and Other Islands (2000) and a trade monograph, Communication and the Environment (2000). Shiau's first novel, Heartland, a textbook about the paradox of rootedness and rootlessness in Singapore, received the National Book Development Council (NBDCS) Singapore Literature Prize Commendation Award and was named by Singapore's English daily The Straits Times in December 1999, along with J.M. Coetzee's Disgrace, as one of the 10 Best Books of the Year. From 2007, Heartland will be a textbook for Singapore secondary schools offering English Literature in their GCE "O-Level" curriculum.
His works have also been translated into five languages, including Mandarin and Italian, and have been featured in cross-discipline public performances by other artists, such as Bach in the Dark presented by the cellists of Tanglewood Music School and advised by Ivan Peev of the Bulgarian National Radio Symphony Orchestra, as well as Words and Works at the Ng Eng Teng Gallery.
