Malinda Lo

Acclaimed author of Ash Malinda Lo returns with her most personal and ambitious novel yet, a gripping story of love and duty set in San Francisco's Chinatown during the 1950s. "That book. It was about two women, and they fell in love with each other." And then Lily asked the question that had taken root in her, that was even now unfurling its leaves and demanding to be shown the sun: "Have you ever heard of such a thing?" Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can't remember exactly when the question took root, but the answer was in full bloom the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club. America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown. Red-Scare paranoia threatens everyone, including Chinese Americans like Lily. With deportation looming over her father--despite his hard-won citizenship--Lily and Kath risk everything to let their love see the light of day.

Last Night at the Telegraph Club

Forced into becoming an indentured servant when her family dies, Ash lives a lonely and desperate life with no hopes for the future, until she meets Kaisa, the King's royal Huntress, who teaches her to love, live, and dream once again.

Last Night at the Telegraph Club author Malinda Lo returns to the Bay Area with another masterful queer coming-of-age story, this time set against the backdrop of the first major Supreme Court decisions legalizing gay marriage. 

Aria Tang West was looking forward to a summer on Martha’s Vineyard with her best friends—one last round of sand and sun before college. But after a graduation party goes wrong, Aria’s parents exile her to California to stay with her grandmother, artist Joan West. Aria expects boredom, but what she finds is Steph Nichols, her grandmother’s gardener. Soon, Aria is second-guessing who she is and what she wants to be, and a summer that once seemed lost becomes unforgettable—for Aria, her family, and the working-class queer community Steph introduces her to. It’s the kind of summer that changes a life forever.

And almost sixty years after the end of Last Night at the Telegraph Club, A Scatter of Light also offers a glimpse into Lily and Kath’s lives since 1955.

A Scatter of Light

In the aftermath of a series of plane crashes caused by birds, 17-year-old Reese and her debate-team partner, David, receive medical treatment at a secret government facility and become tangled in a conspiracy that is, according to Reese's friend Julian, connected with aliens and UFOs. 25,000 first printing.

Defy the Dark

I was born on Earth, not Kurra. I'm not human,even though I try to be. My people, the Imria, think I'm a little unusual because of that. They call me an Earthsider: as if I've crossed a line, chosen a side. Gone native. Before she met her girlfriend Reese, before she knew the role she would play in the fate of two worlds, Amber was a fifteen-year-old Imrian torn between two identities. Imrian by blood, Amber was forced to hide her true self to pass as human during the time she spent on earth. And even when she returns to Kurra, her human experiences, including first love and heartache, still separate her from her fellow Imrians. But when Amber undergoes kibila, a traditional Imrian coming-of-age ceremony during which Amber will choose her name and identity for the next fifteen years, she will be forced to either accept her role in both worlds or forge her own path. Malinda Lo's digital exclusive novella companion to Adaptation and Inheritance takes readers on a journey through Amber's past, giving fans a glimpse into her life on Kurra and a deeper understanding of one of Adaptation's most compelling characters.

Vencedor de diversos prêmios, incluindo o prestigioso National Book Award, A noite passada no Telegraph Club é uma ficção histórica ricamente detalhada e um romance de formação delicado e corajoso sobre encontrar a si mesma. Em A noite passada no Telegraph Club, Lily Hu tem dezessete anos e não consegue lembrar exatamente quando a pergunta se enraizou em seu coração, mas a resposta estava em plena floração no momento em que ela e Kathleen Miller caminharam sob o letreiro de neon de um bar lésbico chamado Telegraph Club. Os Estados Unidos em 1954 não são um lugar seguro para duas garotas se apaixonarem, especialmente em Chinatown. A paranoia da ameaça comunista põe todos em perigo, incluindo os descendentes de chineses, como Lily. Com o fantasma da deportação pairando sobre seu pai — apesar de ele ter lutado duramente para conseguir a cidadania —, Lily e Kath precisarão arriscar tudo por esse amor. "A escrita de Lo é tão rica que você quase pode sentir o brilho das luzes de neon irradiando das páginas." - Casey McQuiston, autora de Vermelho, branco e sangue azul "Finalmente o romance juvenil histórico, interseccional e sáfico que tantos leitores estavam esperando." - Kirkus Reviews " A noite passada no Telegraph Club é uma obra de ficção histórica tão meticulosamente pesquisada quanto cheia de emoção crua e autêntica... Grite das colinas mais altas: esta é uma história linda e corajosa, e Lily é uma heroína que os leitores vão adorar." - BookPage "Fazendo referência a marcos culturais e lugares com significado histórico sino-americano, Lo evoca habilmente a San Francisco dos anos 50 enquanto transcende a historicidade por meio de uma exploração sincera sobre identidade e amor." - Publishers Weekly "Um livro emocionante em que a ficção histórica encontra o romance... Imersiva e criativa, Lo se envolve em seu mundo fictício de aventura e adrenalina e segue Lily Hu enquanto a garota procura a mulher que ela ama." - Gay Times "Este livro brilha com as emoções do desejo juvenil." - Sarah Waters, autora de Na ponta dos dedos "Uma jornada de autodescoberta tão necessária quanto perigosa." - PopSugar.com "Malinda Lo é um ícone." - BuzzFeed "Uma história de amor obrigatória... alternadamente comovente e prazerosa." - Booklist "Este imersivo e poderoso romance de formação aborda percepções, expectativas e identidade enquanto arrebata os leitores para boates lésbicas enfumaçadas e a cultura dos anos 1950." - BCCB
