Sharlene Teo’s debut novel Ponti was critically acclaimed on release in 2018, winning the inaugural Deborah Rogers Writers’ Award and being nominated for a number of other literary prizes. It is set in Singapore (Teo is Singaporean, though based in the UK), and follows the lives of three women as their relationships become closely entangled. A fascinating and strange novel, it showcases a writer of talent and inventiveness as it evokes the suffocating world of teenage girlhood.
