β¦ Synopsis
A Singaporean inventor struggles with the fact that his father is dead but why hasn't he come back as a ghost?
In this hilarious satirical novel, a Malay-Chinese-Muslim-Jewish Singaporean shares a public housing with: Cantona, a promising Bangladeshi artist on the run from a construction company; Tights, an illegal immigrant from China obsessed with Forrest Gump; and Shanti, an Indian lab technician hiding from her husband.
When a forlorn ghost known as a pontianak begins haunting them, he and his friends find themselves embroiled in a showdown that may just upend the world.
Written in Suffian Hakim's trademark humour, The Minorities is about the bonds that form at the edges of society.
