Still, the island continues to whisper-fragmented pieces of truth and chatter, until a letter arrives two decades later, carrying a confession that shatters the family even further. Left to rebuild in their patriarch’s shadow, the surviving members of the Leong family attempt a new, ordinary life, vowing to bury their gilded past. When Frank Leong is murdered on Oahu, his family is thrown into a perilous downward spiral. According to Chinese legend, the red string – the cord which binds one intended beloved to her perfect match – also punishes for mistakes in love, twisting each misstep into a destructive knot that passes down the family line. But something ancient follows the Leongs to the islands, haunting them – the parable of the red string of fate. Frank Leong, a prominent shipping industrialist and head of the celebrated Leong family, brings his loved ones from China to Hawaii at the turn of the twentieth century, abandoning his interests at the Port of Tsingtao when the Japanese invade. 5/30/2023 0 Comments The Time Machine by H.G. WellsWhy not? What would it be like to live near London in the 1890s? Well, it would all depend on who you were. As the Epilogue tells us, however, he is aware of them, and he's not optimistic about the prospects. (We imagine it's a lot like Wallace & Gromit's house.) In this house in Richmond, surrounded by professional friends and nearly invisible servants, the Time Traveller seems somewhat insulated from the economic and political problems of the time. We don't see very much of the house in which it's set, just that it has a dining room, smoking room, laboratory, garden, man-servant, housekeeper, and maybe a cook. Our story takes place in a suburb of London called Richmond (which, yes, is part of London now).

Thankfully, once The Strain is unleashed and a host of half-zombie, half-vampire creatures start laying waste to New York, the book shifts up a few gears, with Del Toro's talent for creating fantastical, macarbre characters shining through. Whether it's the curious dual authorship or just a desire to set the scene accurately, the beginning of the story is a disappointingly sluggish mass of technical description. With an obvious nod to bram stoker's Dracula, The Strain follows the story of a plane that lands in New York with nearly all passangers dead and a mysterious, earth filled coffin in the hold. The second book in Guillermo del Toro (director of Pans Labyrinth, Hellboy, etc.) and Chuck Hogans (Devils in Exile, 2010, etc.) The Strain trilogy finds. Best known as an innovative film director, Mexican Guillermo Del Toro makes his first foray into literature alongside thriller writer Chuck Hogan with this entertaining mix of action blockbuster and vampire myth. |
