LIONS IN WINTER NO. 6 ON TOP 10 BESTSELLER LIST

Published in December 2007 by MPH, Lions In Winter is a work of literary fiction comprising 11 short stories about Singaporeans living in the West.

Within two months of its publication, Lions rose to No. 6 of the Straits Times Top Ten Bestseller List (February 3, 2008), above works by Stephen King, Mitch Albom and Khaled Hosseini. Not only was Lions the only book on that list by an Asian publisher, it was the only title written by a local writer.

In the third month of its launch, the book entered into its second print run.
