From 1 March 2026, eligible SingLit books may be bought with Culture Pass.
Our bookshop is a portal not just to contemporary publications, but can be thought of as a spring that founts from an otherwise invisible aquifer of Kampong Gelam’s religious scholarship, of storytelling, of speaking truth to power, and of thinking together. A bookshop is so much more than the sum of its books: it is an anchor for a community of readers.
As December comes to a close, we cap another year of reading and another year of providing good books to our reading community with a roundup of ten of the best of 2025.
