The River's Song by Suchen Christine Lim

3.0

I’ve always liked hearing the stories lost amidst progress and evolution, the perspectives of the ones ignored and left behind by time. Especially in sg, where the structural development of our country is constantly evolving - to the point where history tends to get lost between the cracks.

I only wish the story had delved deeper into the direct effects of cleaning the river on the people who lived there, would like to find out more from Weng’s perspective. And also, the switches in povs was a little hard to follow along at first.
