Author: Leung Mong Fung Publisher: Bright Culture Publishing Dimensions: 147mm x 195mm Pages: 224 ISBN: 978-988-8884-57-5 Publication Date: July 2025 [Synopsis] Leung Mong Fung's latest installment in the "Hong Kong Memory" series, "Time Leaves Us," tells stories of "what I still cherish, but have ultimately lost." For the older generation of Hongkongers, there was a distinction between the "old airport" and the "new airport." If they told you which one they preferred, their stories would undoubtedly be tinged with emotion. The new generation in Hong Kong doesn't really have a concept of old versus new airports; they only know that Hong Kong's sole airport is "Hong Kong International Airport." They never had the chance to see Kai Tak Airport, nor did they experience the awe-inspiring sight of planes soaring overhead, casting vast shadows. Therefore, it is our responsibility as adults to recreate the Hong Kong of yesteryear, to share tales of "back in the day" and "I've lived a lot." This novel is also a love letter to Hong Kong. Those with a heart for sentiment will naturally understand. [Author Biography] Leung Mong Fung A Taurus man born on May 14th. He abandoned his parents' expectations and became a full-time writer at seventeen; he let go of several relationships, leaving a few women to hate him with a passion; he bid farewell to readers who believed "love is strongest," writing novels that shattered their romantic ideals of men; he sacrificed sleep and freedom to raise two cats who gnaw at his heels if not fed ten meals a day. However, as he is inherently a person who craves security, each of these sacrifices was not made lightly, requiring immense effort. Leung Mong Fung's writing often explores themes of love, reflecting the rebellious and ever-changing attitudes of men and women towards romance today, yet it also poignantly highlights the presence of genuine affection within relationships that may seem superficial. What is love to Leung Mong Fung? He says, "Love to me is an 'experiment,' with me as the test subject. Dissect me, inject unknown viruses or drugs into my body! Watching myself suffer from malignant tumors, my chest cut open and stitched closed, I gained a deeper understanding of my own structure, and I hope to help the person experimenting on me find what she seeks." This is Leung Mong Fung, the most authentic male author of love in the Hong Kong literary scene.
