Twelve Strands: Journeys with Asian authors

Twelve Strands pulls together the writing journeys of 12 Asian authors from countries as diverse as South Korea and Pakistan. Some write poetry and songs, while others write children’s books. Some are able to share the deepest pains and highest joys of those whose testimonies they give voice to. All feel an almost compulsive need to write so that the knowledge of the love of Christ can reach the farthest corners of their country, if not the world. They share a calling.

The book aims to inspire a new generation of Asian writers and encourage current ones. The countries represented in the anthology are:  China, South Korea, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Philippines, Pakistan, India, Indonesia, Singapore, Taiwan/US, Malaysia and Cambodia.

Authors included are: Tina Cho, Abu Taher Chowdhury, Tin Dinh, Luis Gatmaitan, Robinson Samuel Gill, George Koshy, Eva Kristiaman, Emily Lim, Mo Fei, Catalina Rembuyan, Seila Uon and Andrew Yuan. Read a sample. Co-published by and available in Singapore from Graceworks. 2015, paperback, 187
