Description: Little Reunions by Eileen Chang, Jane Weizhen Pan, Martin Merz Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Now available in English for the first time, Eileen Changs dark romance opens with Julie, living at a convent school in Hong Kong on the eve of the Japanese invasion. Her mother, Rachel, long divorced from Julies opium-addict father, saunters around the world with various lovers. Recollections of Julies horrifying but privileged childhood in Shanghai clash with a flamboyant, sometimes incestuous cast of relations that crowd her life. Eventually, back in Shanghai, she meets the magnetic Chih-yung, a traitor who collaborates with the Japanese puppet regime. Soon theyre in the throes of an impassioned love affair that swings back and forth between ardor and anxiety, secrecy and ruin. Like Julies relationship with her mother, her marriage to Chih-yung is marked by long stretches of separation interspersed with unexpected little reunions. Changs emotionally fraught, bitterly humorous novel holds a fractured mirror directly in front of her own heart.

In 2007, Lust, Caution, a film adaptation of Changs 1979 novella, directed by Ang Lee, was released.
