Imran Hashim fell in love with France a little late in life (in his teens) but made up for it by studying French with a vengeance at university, and then going on to the Sorbonne and Sciences Po Paris for postgraduate studies. Apart from providing the inspiration for his first novel, his time in Paris was a period of self-discovery, chief amongst which was an undying love for pear tarts with chocolate bits inside.

I mean, you just know they can't wait to rip each other's clothes off, even as they are being all curt and angry with each other. The only thing stopping them from ravishing each other is decorum and God, which still counted for something back in the 1700s. So they exercise all that tension away by doing lots of walking in their huge gardens and being snarky, which is so fun to witness. Get married already you two! Geez. Can you imagine what their make-up sex is like? So hawt. If you allow me to pick another couple from films, then it has to be Julia Roberts and Richard Gere in Pretty Woman. Here everything in Jane Austen is reversed - sex first, love later; the woman is doing the courting, not the man; reputations and dignity are not to be upheld, but to be redeemed. But again, the sexual tension cuts like a knife, but even with release, they realise they need more. We need more. Fall in love already you two! Geez. So delicious. (less)

Being published in Singapore, distribution of physical copies of my novel has proven to be really challenging. I mean, you can get hard copies of the books in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, but nowhere else, really. Buying a hard copy online and getting it shipped is really expensive Read more of this blog post »

Annabelle Thong by Imran Hashim
"Lighthearted, super funny and authentically Singaporean. Way better than Emily in Paris. At least Annabelle has character development."

Quotes by Imran Hashim  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I enjoy talking politics and debating social issues, but I've discovered that unless I want to be sent to a colony for social lepers, I better keep some of my made-in-Singapore opinions to myself. Freedom of expression may be sacred here, yet I can't help but feel that if you trangress the limits of what the French deem ideologically acceptable, the only person you'll be expressing your opinions to will be yourself. Or the likes of Jean-Marie Le Pen or some old lady in Alsace who lives in a forest and breeds Rottweilers. The alternative to self-censorship is social exclusion, which may be less draconian than imprisonment, but the net effect is pretty much the same. (p. 152)”
