Last Night at the Telegraph Club
“The book. It was about two women in love with each other. — And then, she asked the question that had taken root in her and was now unfolding its pages and demanding to be shown in the sunlight: — Have you ever heard of such a thing?”
Lily Hu cannot remember the exact moment the question took root in her mind, but the answer came, as if a streetlamp were lit on a pitch-black night, when she and Kathleen Miller walked beneath the neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club.
In 1954, Chinatown, in the United States of America, is no safe place for two girls to fall in love. The Red Scare intimidates the population, especially Sino-Americans like Lily’s family. With the threat of deportation hanging over her father, despite his hard-won citizenship, Lily and Kath risk everything so that their love can emerge from the shadows and see the light of day.
