Memory Piece by Lisa Ko
In the early 1980s, three teenagers, Giselle Chin, Jackie Ong, and Ellen Ng, find solace in their shared sense of alienation and a longing for something beyond the ordinary. United by their unique quirks, they dream of a future filled with artistic freedom and creativity. As they grow into adulthood, their paths diverge, and their dreams become more complex. Giselle navigates the elite world of performance art, Jackie grapples with the evolving internet landscape, and Ellen faces the challenges of gentrification in her community. Spanning from the 1980s to the imagined 2040s, "Memory Piece" explores the evolving friendship of these three women as they seek fulfillment in a world that defies their expectations.
