(First Edition)
When the unique world of Kevin Tsai meets Sunny Face’s charming ill.u.s.trations, comes the vivid reproduction of boys from Tsai’s memory ….

When it comes to boys, everyone has a bunch of stories they could write, but only Kevin Tsai is able to produce page after page of interesting stories about them. Upon first look at the descriptions in the book, it’s quite surprising to feel a sense of familiarity, despite these being boys in the author’s life. Even in some seemingly dark and hopeless instances, you can still find a glimmer of light from love and emotions, as well as dark humour that will make you smile knowingly. Paired with delicate ill.u.s.trations by Sunny Face that Tsai has handpicked, each boy is able to come alive on the pages, leaping into your sight, like the boys you knew from long ago returning to your memory ….
