'A gripping novel where historical fiction meets romance, Last
Night at the Telegraph is a whirlwind read... Immersive and
creative.' - Gay Times 'Lo's writing . . . shimmers with the
thrills of youthful desire. A lovely, memorable novel' - Sarah
Waters, author of Tipping the Velvet and The Night Watch. 'An
instant classic, the finest LGBTQIA+ romance I've read in ages.' -
Bill Konigsberg, award-winning author of The Music of What Happens
and The Bridge From the award winning author of Ash comes a
gripping story of love and duty set in San Francisco's Chinatown
during the 1950s. 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.
