The woman confirms she was the author of some “tweets about Jews and Israel”, saying she wrote them “because when you are very anti-Islam and you haven’t thought about the JQ and it hasn’t been in your periphery vision, and I was a Tommy Robinson supporter, it is kind of the way you’re lead. So I am not going to apologise for those, as that was part of my journey.” “The JQ” is an abbreviation often used by white nationalists and neo-Nazis to refer to “the Jewish question”.

I was interested at first because a friend living in Singapore talked about her ambivalence towards having a maid and the incidents she observed of employers being unfair to their maids. The idea of using the voices and points of view of the ma'ams and maids (some kind and helpful, others abusive exploitative) ws a good one, but as the book unfolded I found that the voices, especially when they became philosophical or reflected on history, began to lose their individuality. The story of Eunice, the harshest ma'am, then began to develop into a kind of horror story as her mental condition deteriorated. In the end, the person who could perhaps have been held to account for her treatment, not only of her staff but of her friends, became something beyond being judged and this rather weakened the impact of the book for me. it was life-changing for me to be able to talk about my problems with a counsellor who looked like me, who understood the nuances of my experience, who I didn’t need to walk through the basics of institutional racism, or censor myself around”

Other times, I stumble over the word “citalopram” and pretend that my antidepressants are vitamins, for fear of being treated like a “cr*zy person”. Although this was a fictional story, so much seemed as though it was factual, except for the pseudonym district, Sabre Green. I really hope that Shammi took over from Lucilla working for Ebony Ma’am. My ability to have these conversations about mental health is hard-won, and relatively new. The stigmatisation of mental health in communities of colour prevented me from getting the help I needed for a long time. While my doctors have advised medication for three years, I only recently accepted this advice – to my vast improvement and incredible relief. Madame Eunice is often despicable in her attitude towards and treatment of her maids, and indeed her friends. She sees herself as a ‘tiger’ – someone who is at the pinnacle of Singaporean society and entitled to exercise this power. Many aspects of her personality are conditioned by her Chinese heritage and the prevailing attitudes towards those lower down the social hierarchy.Though Stirling, a white woman spoke about wanting to be a good ally – Rianna says that in future, she will not take such proclamations at face value.
