263. The Song of Silver Frond, Catherine Lim

I was first drawn to it because of how the story was written around the time the Japanese just left Singapore. But it became quite intriguing as the story focused on an affluent family, a man with three wives. And he was, literally captivated by a girl 40 yrs or so his junior.. who was not even had her first period yet. The girl eventually became the 4th wife. And what was even more intriguing was that at the end of the book, the author explained that it was a true story.
