About This Novel
Phenomenal bestseller! The beautiful transformation of "Island Bookstore" author Gabriel Zevin! Jia Zewen's works have swept through major lists in Europe and the United States, been translated into 31 languages, and have sold more than 10 million copies in total. Life cannot be escaped, but we can still choose to grow without fear. Welcome to New York in 2083, where the stench of crime and corruption pervades, and only the aroma of chocolate, considered taboo, can recall love and hope. I'm Anya Balanchine, the daughter of the late chocolate mafia boss. At the age of 16, I gradually got used to being drawn into the whirlpool of family feuds and being in and out of juvenile correctional facilities. My ankle was branded with a shameful number, and my studies and future were messed up, but it was all worth it, as long as it was for the people I loved deeply - my grandmother who was seriously ill in bed, my brother who had a damaged IQ, and my young sister. Maybe there's also a boy named Wen who loves hats. After all, that's what life is about, isn't it? Like grandma said, "Take a piece of chocolate and share it with someone you love."
