Book Description
The Three Kingdoms History Even Luo Guanzhong Didn’t Know!
Breaking free from traditional historical narratives, this book blends elements from video games, anime, TV dramas, and online humor.
After thousands of fans relentlessly asking for it, the wait is finally over—
It’s time for "Somebody Sue" to reveal the hidden truths of history that have been concealed for centuries.
The disappointments of adult life, or what she called, “expectation fallacy”,《Waking Up in Dreams》is a collection of twenty-eight short stories by Taiwanese Canadian writer Coco Shen. These micro - sometimes nano - stories swing between sharp wit of Lydia Davis and melancholic humor of Lorrie Moore, a cutting yet poetic depiction of life’s living absurdity.
Travel without an address, but a big brown envelope: two passports, seven currencies, metro pass of several cities, receipts of different foreign languages, coaster from a German town that famous for its beer. Anti-biotic, mosquito repellent; paint brush, love letters. Four copies of signed and sealed divorce papers.”
Open the suitcase, choose an identity. Prose, poetry, travel journal and photography, Shen’s second book is a jigsaw of her ten years living elsewhere.
