Krátky popis
*Shortlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal of Excellence in Fiction
and Nonfiction*A stunning and compelling novel for fans of
PACHINKO, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, and SHUGGIE BAIN'The pages crackle

read' The Times'Cinema Love is not just an extraordinary debut but
a future classic' Jessamine Chan, author of The School for Good
MothersFor over thirty years, Old Second and Bao Mei have cobbled
together a meagre existence in New York City's Chinatown. But
unlike other couples, these two share an unusual past. In rural
Fuzhou, before they emigrated, they frequented the Workers' Cinema,
where gay men cruised for love.While classic war films played, Old
Second and his fellow countrymen found intimacy in the privacy of
the Workers' Cinema's screening rooms. Elsewhere, in the box
office, Bao Mei sold tickets to closeted men - guarding their
privacy and finding her own happiness with the projectionist. But
when their secrets are unveiled, they set in motion a series of
haunting events that propel Old Second and Bao Mei towards an
uncertain future in America.Spanning three timelines -
post-socialist China, 1980s Chinatown, and contemporary New York -
Cinema Love is a tender epic about men and women who find
themselves in forbidden and frustrated relationships as they
grapple with the past and their unspoken desires. 'An ambitious and
promising debut' Irish Times'I loved it. Cinema Love fizzes with
energy.The characters are rich and warm and the prose is perfect.
Jiaming Tang is a remarkable new voice' Fiona Mozley, author of
Booker-shortlisted Elmet'A tender and enrapturing feat of
storytelling' Vanessa Chan, author of The Storm We Made
