“Deft, thoughtful, and eschewing cliché, T.A. Morton’s slice of contemporary Hong Kong showcases her skills as a sharp social observer. While a cross –section of locals and expatriates struggles to survive financially, emotionally and physically, the coffee shop that connects them becomes a character in itself, reflecting the clashing moods and impulses of a city too busy for introspection. Morton is a talent to watch.”
