About
In this eloquent and atmospheric novel, Li Ang further cements her reputation as one of our most sophisticated contemporary Chinese-language writers. The Lost Garden moves along two parallel lines, a family saga and a cat-and-mouse courtship in modern-day Taipei. As the protagonists' romance dulls, they are forced on a quest to rediscover enchantment. The Lost Garden is a moving portrait of the losses incurred as we struggle to hold on to our passions.
