Kong jiao wei,, in Hokkien, means â€œspeaking bird language.â€ It is a cock-and-bull story, a flight of fancy and, incidentally, the perfect phrase to describe this collection of microfiction with a quintessentially Singaporean flavour. The reader steps into a technological dystopia one moment and wakes up a crow in the next story, all within the space of a hundred words.,Expect a spirit war in underground tunnels, genetically-modified babies and a Singapore overrun by anti-government spies in these short stories. Be entertained by a motley gang of characters both strange and the deranged, uber-rational and supernatural, feathered or plucked in ,The Ayam Curtain,.,Table Of Contents,Speaking Bird Language,Tales from the Lonely Tree by Vanessa Ni Qiu Rui,By Wing and Talon by Jonathan Jie,An Urban Bestiary by Dave Chua,Ark by Joyce Chng,Jumping Ship by Lim Ming Jie,The Heart of the Rain Tree by Geraldine Choo,KY USB by Lucas Ho,Vernacular by Andrea Ang,Interview by JY Yang,Sparrows over Trees by Anders Brink,Unwanted Utopia I by Joelyn Alexandra,World-hopping on Wings by Ang Si Min,The Gilded Cage by Cherie Tan,Two Frames in Between by Geraldine Kang,They Called Me The Hyacinth Girl by Victor Fernando R.
