β¦ Synopsis
After six years without contact, a young man returns to New Zealand and attempts to reconnect with family and friends who have moved on and a country he no longer recognizes, but is forced to confront those he has wronged and the consequences of his failed past.
From the high-achieving daughter of Chinese immigrants, a Japanese misfit who rubs everyone the wrong way, and an old friend embroiled in a Maori land occupation, this satirical and darkly humorous novel chronicles love, bigotry and the fragility of truth in New Zealand and Japan at the close of the twentieth century.
Note: Contains strong language, sexual themes and references that may offend
