About the Author

Diana is a writer and visual artist whose work circles around the themes of gender justice, the experience of the environment and the politics of public space. Her visual work has been exhibited in National Gallery Singapore and Museum of Modern Art Saitama, Japan and her recent essays and stories anthologised in Here was once the sea: An anthology of Southeast Asian ecowriting, Making Kin: Ecofeminist Essays from Singapore and The Best of World SF amongst others. We Saw Mountains is her first book and the culmination of almost a decade of stories.

About the Book

We Saw Mountains gathers nine stories of human and non-human daring, where quotidian life is cracked open to possibilities of autonomy and re-imagination. A teen’s part-time job tests his integrity, a grieving elephant finds a new home by way of a contested river, and on an island a mountain appears, fully formed.

Through these visionary tales, Diana Rahim—whose stories have been featured in Best New Singaporean Short Stories and The Best of World SF—asks, can we do things differently? Can we imagine a different kind of life?

Step into this spellbinding collection and witness transformations both cosmic and everyday. Journey from the desert to the oasis, from drought to bloom, and return to our world with a rekindled faith in the possibility of becoming.
