"Proof of Malinda Lo's skill at creating darkly romantic tales of love in the face of danger."—O: The Oprah Magazine

"The queer romance we’ve been waiting for.”—Ms. Magazine

A National Bestseller


Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can't remember exactly when the feeling took root—that desire to look, to move closer, to touch. Whenever it started growing, it definitely bloomed the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club. Suddenly everything seemed possible. 

But America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown. Red-Scare paranoia threatens everyone, including Chinese Americans like Lily. With deportation looming over her father—despite his hard-won citizenship—Lily and Kath risk everything to let their love see the light of day.

十七歲的胡莉莉不記得什麼時候開始有這種感覺--那種想看、想接近、想觸摸的慾望。每當慾望開始滋長時,它肯定會開花結果。她和凱瑟琳•米勒走到一家名為「電報俱樂部」的女同志酒吧閃爍的霓虹燈下。霎時,似乎一切都有可能。
 
但一九五四年的美國對兩個墜入愛河的女孩來說並不安全,尤其是在唐人街。紅色恐佈妄想症威脅著所有的人,包括像莉莉這樣的華裔美國人。儘管她父親的公民身份得之不易,他可能因此被驅逐出境,但莉莉和凱瑟琳仍冒著風險讓她倆的愛情得以重見光明。
