Teresa Lim is a Singaporean author who now resides in England. She lives with her husband in south London and Devon and have two grown-up sons. The Interpreter’s Daughter<\/em><\/a> is her first book.<\/p>\n

The Interpreter’s Daughter<\/em> is a poetic multi-generational debut memoir which took Teresa 10 years to research. She also received funding from the National Heritage Board in Singapore to assist in her writing. Teresa\u2019s family story transports readers from the Opium Wars to the end of the Second World War, through south China, Singapore, Shanghai, Borneo, Hong Kong and London. At its heart lies a hidden family tragedy.<\/p>\n

The Interpreter’s Daughter<\/em><\/a> was published by Michael Joseph on 23rd June and you can find it on the Suffolk Community Libraries catalogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Who were your influences as you were growing up?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As an only child whose father died when I was nine, it was undoubtedly my mother. I grew up in Singapore and my parents were Chinese. My father was very traditional, not very involved in my upbringing. My mother was more \u2018modern\u2019 and very demonstrative and loving. We could talk about most things. She was kind to everyone and had few prejudices against people. She was very forgiving. These are qualities I try to emulate, not always successfully!<\/p>\n

I learnt through writing this book that there was another major, but unseen, influence on my childhood. It was my great-aunt Fanny, my mother\u2019s maternal aunt. She had my mother educated in English (and therefore I was taught in English too) and encouraged her to be ambitious. My mother\u2019s training allowed her a successful career in the civil service which made all the difference when I was growing up — my father had died unexpectedly, leaving us unprovided for. It was my mother\u2019s independently earned income that allowed me to carry on with my schooling and to go to university.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How has your life changed since you picked up that family photograph?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s changed quite a bit. That photograph started me on research that\u2019s given me a greater sense of where I come from and therefore who I am. It\u2019s been very grounding knowing more about people with whom I share my genes. It\u2019s also been eye-opening to learn the history of their time. It\u2019s given me an awareness of our history as it is being made now. Their world is so relevant to ours. Some things haven\u2019t changed all that much.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Can you tell Suffolk readers a little about your new book The Interpreter’s Daughter<\/strong><\/em><\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At its heart there is a strong, even wilful, young woman \u2013 my great-aunt Fanny — who decided she wouldn\u2019t marry and took a vow of spinsterhood to seal that intention. Her models were the feminists of 19th century south China who\u2019d rather marry ghosts than real men. She got herself an English education and went on to university when that was rare for women in British Malaya.<\/p>\n

But this is also a story about the political and social circumstances of the time and how our personal lives cannot help but entwine with what shapes world history. So Fanny\u2019s story is also the story of World War in the Pacific \u2013 why it happened, what happened to the ordinary people of Singapore after it fell to Japan, after the British were sent to prison camps.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did you feel when you finally finished writing after so long researching?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elated\u2026 and nervous. Apparently all first-time writers feel a little anxious letting go of something that they\u2019ve lived with for so long, not knowing where it will go and where it might lead them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Any family history is going to have gaps you simply cannot fill. Were there stories you would have told but just did not have the information?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s the nearly love-affair between Fanny and the young man that I\u2019ve named \u2018Chen\u2019. He did exist. There was definitely someone she met while she was at the University of Hong Kong for whom she had feelings, I think deep feelings. They possibly made her regret her vow of spinsterhood. But what actually went on? I\u2019d love to know.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is there anything you can share with us about your latest project?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The next book that I want to write combines my early childhood in post-colonial Singapore – where I grew up among marginal, Dickensian characters – with my father\u2019s family. I know very little about them, but they were also interesting. They came from a village in China called \u2018Forever Spring\u2019, renowned for its highly decorated black and gold lacquer baskets. My father emigrated to Singapore in 1949, the year that China became Communist.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One book, piece of music or work of art that everyone should experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Growing up in Singapore in the 50s and early 60s, I wasn\u2019t exposed to much Western classical music apart from what I practised for graded examinations on the piano. We didn\u2019t own a record player, but I did do a music O-level. One drowsy afternoon, our teacher brought in his own record player and put on Bach\u2019s Suite no 3 in D major. When the \u2018Air\u2019 played, I felt as if I\u2019d been hit by a thunderbolt. I\u2019d never, ever heard music like that before. It was celestial.<\/p>\n

No-one\u2019s response is the same of course but I wish everyone an experience like mine, whether with pop, rock, folk, or classical, from whichever part of the world. I imagine Debussy felt that ‘wham’ moment the first time that he heard the gamelan.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is on your ‘to read’ pile at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I belong to a wonderfully eclectic book club that takes up most of my reading time as I\u2019m an extremely slow reader. We\u2019re with Wilkie Collins at the moment, with The Moonstone<\/em><\/a> — a terrific but not a quick read!<\/p>\n

My ‘to read’ pile includes Bernadine Evaristo\u2019s Girl, Woman, Other<\/em><\/a>, Cynthia Saltzman\u2019s Napoleon\u2019s Plunder and the Theft of Veronese\u2019s Feast<\/em><\/a> which a friend gave me and looks fascinating, and Edward Chisholm\u2019s A Waiter in Paris.<\/p>\n

I also long to re-read my favourite books growing up in Singapore \u2013 Elizabeth Goudge\u2019s Linnets and Valerians and E.M. Forster\u2019s The Longest Journey<\/em><\/a>. I loved them though I had never visited England. What would I think of the manners and the English countryside now? I didn\u2019t know what a valerian looked like. Now I see them everywhere. They grow wild around us in Devon where we spend our summers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Knowing what you know now is there anything you would have done differently?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You get so caught up in the text when writing a book, checking and re-checking facts, syntax, grammar, expression. I wish I\u2019d spent more time on the photographs, actually commissioning proper pictures of the houses where my family had lived.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
