A rather heartwarming play; it reminds me of the present Bukit Brown cemetery (in which most of its tombstones are in disrepair). Too bad I was unable to see this play live.

This is actually my third (or fourth) time reading this book, but to be honest this book took me at least 2 reads to capture most of the details and also fully understand the story and link everything that happens together. Overall this is quite a good read, but I would not have picked this book if it was not a compulsory read by my school since I don't really like reading plays as I'm quite slow on picking details and understanding them.
