Von der hinteren Coverseite

After unearthing her grandfather's hidden memoir, Jessica J. Lee embarks on a journey to Taiwan to piece together her family's fractured history.

From lush forests, towering mountains and precipitous coasts to the abstract landscapes of language and memory, Lee traces stories of a country built on natural and political fault lines, and of its people.

'A beautiful, fully-realised tribute to a family and a brave, diligent search for understanding in the mist' Amy Liptrot

'Both clear-eyed and tender hearted; Lee is a poetic talent keenly attentive to the mysterious and sublime' Sharlene Teo
