I'm currently reading this book of selected Chinese poems from Singaporean Chinese authors! Helping to add this would be very useful since this volume represents new horizons in Chinese Language poetry in our nation, and is thus an incredibly needed addition!
Never Before—50 Essential Poems is a compilation of 50 defining poems after two years of extensive archival and library research. The collection, spanning half a century of Singaporean Chinese literary history, aims to expose voices that we have not been told about in school, in the media, and in past representations of what Singapore literature is supposed to be. This is a work that broadens and deepens Singapore's literary tradition across the languages and literary communities."

And the description i took from their publisher:
”不可预期,是对于过往的敬意,现在的奋斗,以及未来的期待。半个世纪,五十首精选,时长两年的整理、梳理,解构又重新建构下,清晰谱出现代诗歌的本土传统与承继。欲兴文学,诗必先锋,诗人敏锐的洞悉与感知能力,往往为生活环境印刻下“当下”的见证,不仅让后者有迹可寻,亦让不同的“当下”在轮回中找到知音。五十首充满前瞻性、趣味性的作品,有意开辟读者对于新华诗作的新想象,并将阅读的心带回到最初的悸动与感动。
