Great short story collection that blends literary fiction with historical fiction. My favorite story was about a couple trying to escape Shanghai during the Japanese invasion. Fantastic ending! Another hit was a story about a Chinese boy in 1920s Vancouver who dresses as a girl to join a hockey team. The ending novella was frustrating because I‘d expect more resolution of the characters‘ arcs in 90 pages. Still a pick though!
