On the eve of World War II, Taiwanese writer Ong Nāu declares: "By the time I turn thirty, I will bring my life to an end." On a tumultuous journey, Ong is torn between his childhood sweetheart and Japanese lover; between Taiwan, his homeland, and Japan, the imperial power that governs its language and its streets; between literary acclaim and silencing of dissent. Ong chooses love.
