A novel flipped on its head, just like the lives of its migrant characters. In one timeline, Lili, a young woman from an Asian immigrant family, navigates life in 1980s France, striving for boldness and intellect in a world that judges her at every turn. In the other, Lyle, an Asian migrant in a near-future Australia, struggles to stay afloat in a country where Islam is banned, fires never stop burning, and assimilation is survival. Three terrifying forces—racism, misogyny, and ageism—haunt their worlds. But which comes first, the future or the past?
