A review by judithhuang
Sofia and the Utopia Machine by Judith Huang

"What she allows to bloom in these pages is that sense of wonder so lacking in our prosaic, pragmatic lives. It is something worth holding on to, as we ponder how best we can, through our choices, make space for others in our society." - Olivia Ho, Straits Times (full review: https://www.straitstimes.com/lifestyle/arts/profound-societal-concerns-in-an-easily-digestible-adventure)

"An impeccable local fable of authoritarian unimaginativeness....If indeed the beginning was the Word, the prime mover of this novel is a skillful wordsmith. Here, the prose bounds as its fauna bounds; it is fleet as its winged creatures; it is rich and deep and confident and aspirational. Huang’s writing at its most inspired, as we have here, is magisterial." - Wong Wen Pu, Mackerel (full review: http://www.mackerel.life/sofia-and-the-utopian-imagination/)
