Overview:

A Hungarian tale written by Yu Zemin, a famed novelist and literary translator, takes place during the 1990s, a turbulent period of history in the Central European country. Situ, the novel's Chinese protagonist, has fled his parents and relocated to the beautiful but troubled countryside where he befriends Zoran. In spite of trying to escape aspects of his Chinese background, Situ finds himself constantly surrounded by reminders of his homeland.

In a rich novel that explores themes of family, race, youth, and love, Zemin portrays a character trapped between two imperfect worlds and the decisions that a passionate young man must make.
