If I Looked My Lack In The Eye (Hardcover) (Pre-Order)

Embossed hardcover, sewn-binding. 

A collection of essays, photographs, unflinching diary entries, and the raw poetry of her lyrics, If I Looked My Lack In The Eye serves as a companion piece to Swim, Swim. Throughout, Linying navigates heartbreak, fleeting romances, and the relentless pull of reinvention, documenting the creation of her sophomore album amid a life in constant flux.

This work of literary non-fiction, edited by playwright Amanda Chong and featuring the photography and design of Michelle Mei and Albert Law, is a vibrant mosaic of an artist embracing chaos and connection, seeking a home not in place, but in the courage to live colourfully, ruthlessly, and true.
