Poems, Yeng Pway Ngon

September 01, 2019Sara Carvalho

While at Singapore, we had a wonderful time interviewing Yeng Pway Ngon, an inexhaustible author, who published 26 volumes of poetry, fiction, essays, plays and literary criticism. We spoke about Yeng Pway Ngon’s talent to write across genres, his first award, the reasons why he has chosen to publish in Taiwan, the imagery in his poems and why truthfulness is important. Yeng Pway Ngon also gave us permission to publish two poems from his Collected Poems’ collection, ‘Café’ and ‘Missing’.
