"We haven't read anything like this novel. Ever. South America gave us magical realism--what is Taiwan giving us? A new way of telling our new reality, beautiful, entertaining, frightening, preposterous, true. . . . Wu Ming-Yi treats human vulnerability and the world's vulnerability with fearless tenderness." --Ursula K. Le Guin "A striking book. . . . It is science fiction . . . in the way that the best Margaret Atwood books are science fiction. . . . I couldn't put it down." --Jason Sheehan, NPR "Lyrical, haunting. . . . A heady mix of science fiction, fantasy, environmental fable and magical realism, the author had to create a genre entirely new for this singular, captivating book." --Pittsburgh Post-Gazette "Astonishing. . . . A wonderful novel." --The Independent (London) "An earnest, politically conscious novel, anchored in ecological concerns and Taiwanese identity. . . . Beyond the book's ecological and scientific attributes, you can see a deft novelist's hand at work." --Tash Aw, The Guardian (London) "Imaginative and moving." --Financial TimesWhen a tsunami sends a massive island made of trash crashing into the coast of Taiwan, two very different people—an outcast from a mythical country and a woman on the verge of suicide—are united in ways they never could have imagined. Intertwined with the story of their burgeoning friendship are the lives of others affected by the tsunami, from environmentalists to Taiwan’s indigenous peoples—and, of course, the mysterious man with the compound eyes. A work of lyrical beauty that combines fantasy, reality, and dystopian environmental saga, here is the English-language debut of a new and exciting award-winning voice from Taiwan.
