Singapore Writers Festival: Laying beauty bare


Pulitzer Prize-winning Irish poet Paul Muldoon performing at the Singapore Writers Festival 2014.

Big-name writers discuss notions of beauty at the recent Singapore Writers Festival.

Beauty. Few words are both so simple and so complex at once. While most of us are able to recognise what we find beautiful – be it an object, a person, an experience or thought – very few of us are able to explain just what exactly beauty is. What’s more, each of us has entirely different interpretations of what we find beautiful, leaving us no further along on the path to unlocking what true beauty is.
