“From Paris to New York, passing by Hong-Kong, the protagonists of these
stories, despite their deeply profound differences, all experience a moment
of rapture – of transgression, of mourning, of sensual pleasures – that
jolts them from the mundane and changes the course of their existence.

In this first book by Eva Lou, a new and unique voice in literature emerges,
at the cross of several cultures, with a style that seizes the reader from
the very first lines.”
