About the author

Stella Kon is descended from two old Singapore families: her mother, Rosie Seow Guat Kheng, was a great-granddaughter of Tan Tock Seng, and her father, Dr Lim Kok Ann, is a grandson of Lim Boon Keng. Most of her life has been spent in Singapore; her childhood was spent in "Oberon," a mansion in Emerald Hill which no longer exists. Kon has written plays, novels, poems and short stories. Her best-known work is the monodrama, "Emily of Emerald Hill."
