Snake Wine and Other Malayan Writings

One of the best-written accounts in English of Singapore in the early 1950s, Snake Wine is the record of Patrick Anderson's two years a lecturer at the University of Malaya. Collected here together with a short story and two poems, this book "offers an important perspective on the politics and cultures of emergent national elites".

Una dintre cele mai bine scrise relatari in limba engleza din Singapore la inceputul anilor 1950, Snake Wine este evidenta celor doi ani de lector de Patrick Anderson la Universitatea din Malaya.
