A brilliant debut that examines a 'haunted' queer and HIV-positive identity, across spaces and citizenships both physical and imagined.

Paradise (Point of Transmission) is a poetry collection placed within a sequence of physical and psychic transitional spaces- from seronegative to seropositive; from 'adopted' Singaporean to the poet finding his place again as an adult in the Perth of his childhood; and from being secretive about his HIV-status (in which the art he produced was rooted in the trauma of HIV transmission without naming it), towards living a more public life, in which living openly with HIV is characterised by the queer longing toward both resilience and transformation.
