Paradise (point of transmission) is a poetry collection placed within a sequence of physical and psychic transitional spaces: from seronegative to seropositive; from 'adopted' Singaporean to the poet finding his place again as an adult in the Perth of his childhood; and from being secretive about his HIV-status (in which the art he produced was rooted in the trauma of HIV transmission without naming it), towards living a more public life, in which living openly with HIV is characterised by the queer longing toward both resilience and transformation.
