一人一半

Former journalist turned homemaker and playwright, Lim Hai Yen, chronicles her married life with MP Baey Yam Keng since 1997. The prolific writer’s latest book, "For Better, For Worse", has five chapters devoted to different roles she plays - as writer, playwright, parent, wife and traveller. She also shares her firsthand account of her encounters with the late Mr. LKY and the aspirations of various MPs past and present.
"For Better, For Worse" also gives an intimate insight into a dark period of the author’s life when she suffered aphasia at the same time that her husband was diagnosed with nose cancer. Yet, above all, the book is optimistic, upbeat and thought-provoking for those looking for “happy ever after” bliss.
