Bang My Car



Uncle: we all know him. This is the man who picks his nose on the bus, who will fight for his country and fight you to do it his way. He will shout you into submission while astounding you with his tenderness towards his wife. His standard answer to all your questions is “nothing”. Singaporean to the core, Bang My Car is a volume of short stories narrated in a mixture of colloquial Singlish and standard English that reinvents classic prose forms from the ghost story to the university admissions essay through the figure of Uncle.
