Sayang

Informationen zum Autor The late Dr. Gopal Baratham (1935-2002) was a proud Singaporean, a distinguished writer and a prominent neurosurgeon in about equal parts.

Considered a literary light during his lifetime, his oeuvre consists of five volumes of short stories, three novels and non-fiction book. His first book, A Candle or The Sun, won the Southeast Asia Write Award in 1991 and was short-listed for the Commonwealth Book Prize in 1992. One of the first Singapore writers to have their work published by an overseas publisher, his books also received much international praise.
