Be Real: A Guide to Authenticity

A zombie apocalypse in Singapore. A gentle poke at the shenanigans writers get up to. And a satire about our hunger for the real thing. Meet Zachary Kwan, a middling novelist trapped in a bout of writer's block. His marriage to a celebrity model is on the rocks, his latest book is met with scathing reviews, and he's about to be cancelled. Things really couldn't get any worse. Spoiler alert: they do. A zombie epidemic takes over the world. And Zachary Kwan, writer of best-selling self-help book under a pseudonym, is infected. Written in poetic form by Felix Cheong and illustrated by Arif Rafhan, Be Real puts a finger on the zeitgeist of our times. In an age defined by curation, how do we know what is real? Will we even recognize ourselves when we reveal our ' true' selves?
