Halfway Up a Hill

In Halfway Up A Hill, the new collection by T. A. Morton, an array of characters from the eight distinctive short stories converge and interact in and around a busy Soho coffee shop in Hong Kong.

In the air-conditioned confines of an unassuming coffee shop halfway up (or down, depending on your point of view) a steep Hong Kong hillside, a multitude of lives entwine, unravel and spin off, together and apart, all watched over and influenced by forces the people involved only vaguely apprehend?as well as observed by the benign spirits that occupy the shop bathroom. The collection of intriguing stories told in Halfway up a Hill both stimulate and beguile, like a sip of hot coffee on a cold day.
