“To the Last Gram” Book Launch
May 1 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Free
Too big. Too small. Wanting to feel special. Never feeling enough.
Let’s talk about the gooey and messy parts of growing up at the book launch of To the Last Gram by debut creators Shreya Davies and Vanessa Wong ❤️🔥
Growing up as a young Indian girl in 1990s Singapore, To the Last Gram follows Divya’s coming-of-age journey as she finds herself off-kilter and increasingly at odds with food, family, and her own body. Told through Shreya Davies’ gentle yet incisive words and Vanessa Wong’s disarmingly surreal illustrations, the comic will surely rip you at the seams and sew you back together again. To the Last Gram is not about recovering from an eating disorder, but about living with one.
Moderated by the incredible Prasanthi Ram, hear from Shreya and Vanessa about their creative process and then weave your thoughts about the book into a collaborative community tapestry. Grab a copy of the book and have it signed by the creators in person!
✨ Preorder the comic from Book Bar by 28 April and collect it at the launch together with a FREE art print!
📌 Limited seating is available on a first-come-first-served basis, with standing room available. Slots will be prioritised for registered attendees (with a 10-minute grace period), but walk-ins are welcome if there is capacity!
