Part of Series

The latest collection from the Hong Kong Writers Circle contains twenty unique and dynamic stories, all set within a single, frenzied day in the city. Delivery drivers living double lives, street-sweepers with dark secrets and teachers teetering on the edge all meet and mingle on the sweaty streets, along crowded MTR lines and in rowdy cha chaan tengs. Behind doors and windows, in taxis and on the din-ding, below dark urban underpasses and on breezy Sai Kung verandas, lives are being lived. Some of the characters within these tales see their past in this present, others look to an uncertain future. Others still are reminded why they remain in such a beguiling and bewildering city as Hong Kong. Whether you are a born-and-bred local, a life-long expat or a visitor fresh off the Airport Express, we're sure that something within this collection will speak to you.
