Afterwork Readings/Babasahin Matapos ang Trabaho/Bacaan Selepas Kerja/ 工餘, an anthology of migrant and domestic worker literature conceived in collaboration with KUNCI Cultural Studies Centre in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This volume about and by migrant workers contains short stories, poems, and excerpts from novels and plays, written by classical literary figures of the region, established con- temporary authors, as well as domestic workers themselves. We hope Afterwork Readings will help the encounter and exchange through literature between the different migrant worker communities and Hong Kong society at large. It also aims to bring together a relevant selection of texts on this important issue written in our region over the past century, as well as to promote the work of the most promising writers from the domestic worker community.
