Cyril Wong
Cyril Wong has been described by The Oxford Companion to Modern Poetry in English as a confessional poet, based mainly on “a barely submerged anxiety over the fragility of human connection and a relentless self-querying.” A two-time recipient of the Singapore Literature Prize (2006 and 2016) and the National Arts Council’s Young Artist Award for Literature (2005), he completed his doctoral degree in English Literature at the National University of Singapore in 2012. His most recent work is Beachlight, published by Seagull Books in 2023.
