The future was hopeless. What a frustrating world! Singapore has a lot of people, six million to be exact. But what happens when there arent enough good jobs to go around and a lot of people wind up at the bottom, thats what. In this powerful and riveting novel, literary phenomenon Lim Han Ming unflinchingly exposes the inner-workings of unemployment and foreign talent in the twenty-first century, and reminds us of the passions and malice that office politics can provoke. When an organisation sacks an employee, the event sends unforeseeable shockwaves through the lives of three people who are chained to the events. The Sacking shows how ones sacking can change the way people think about how they live, what they want, and what they believe forever. An unflinching examination of the human heart's capacity for sorrow, joy, redemption, vengeance and endless gradations in between.
