Cyril Wong

Singaporean born in 1977, Cyril Wong is his country’s leading confessional poet. He received the Singapore Literature Prize for Unmarked Treasure (2006) and The Lover’s Inventory (2016). But to Cyril, success means ‘having made someone else feel less alone in the world with what [he’s] written, said, or sung’. He is also the author of Infinity Diary, published by Seagull Books in 2020.
