个人的悲欢,是时代的注脚。
时代的变迁,是人生的底色。

我们见证时代,时代也塑造我们。
我们改变时代,时代也定义我们。

在这宏大的叙事里,
每个人都是故事的主角。

当个人命运与时代洪流相遇,
阅读便成为最深刻的对话。

让我们在别人的故事里,
寻找自己,读懂时代。

Our personal joys and struggles,
footnotes to the times;

The changes of the times,
the backdrop of our lives.

We bear witness to time passing,
and the passing of time shaped us;

We strive to change the times,
and the times, in turn, define us.

In this grand narrative,
we each have a story to share.

When our own lives cross paths with the tides of an era,

Reading is the deepest form of dialogue.

In someone else’s story,

We might just see ourselves staring back at us—

And see the world with a clearer eye.

As a major annual event in Singapore's literary calendar, the festival continues its mission to promote reading and celebrate quality literary works. Audiences can look forward to close to 30 programmes led by celebrated local and overseas authors, including literary talks, book sharings, workshop, guided tours, film screenings and exhibition.
