Synopsis
Meng Jin presents ten thematically linked stories, written during a turbulent period, that explore intimacy, isolation, and the repercussions of past mistakes. These narratives move between San Francisco and China, blending unsparing realism with genre-bending elements. The collection considers what it means to live in an age of heightened self-consciousness and endless knowledge, yet little actual power.
