Cinema Love

內容簡介

內容簡介 未能言明的愛與孤獨，如映畫在回憶裡播放美國華裔酷兒移民作家出道作，以充滿電影敘事的筆觸，描寫中國男同志幽微細膩的情感。1980年福州農村的工人電影院是男同志密會的聚所，老二和順兒在此相識相戀，但老舊電影院因都市計劃被迫拆除，之後順兒突然自殺，性向不見容於社會的老二和售票員寶梅結婚，並前往美國。40年後，因緣際會，他們又與順兒的前妻燕華在紐約再度相遇。“Exceptional, moving, and not to be missed.”—Alice Hoffman“Gentle and fierce, heartbreaking without sacrificing its sense of humor . . . I have never read anything like it.”—Robert Jones, Jr.A staggering, tender epic about gay men in rural China and the women who marry them.For over thirty years, Old Second and Bao Mei have cobbled together a meager existence in New York City’s Chinatown. But unlike other couples, these two share an unusual past. In rural Fuzhou, before they emigrated, they frequented the Workers’ Cinema: a theater where gay men cruised for love. While classic war films played, Old Second and his countrymen found intimacy in the screening rooms. In the box office, Bao Mei sold movie tickets to closeted men, guarding their secrets and finding her own happiness with the projectionist. But when Old Second’s passion for his male lover is revealed, a series of haunting events unfold, propelling these characters toward an uncertain future in America. Spanning three timelines—post-socialist China, 1980s Chinatown, and contemporary New York—Cinema Love is an “exceptional" and "moving” (Alice Hoffman) epic about men and women who find themselves in forbidden relationships; the weight of secrets; and the way memory forever haunts the present.
