In Hallucination in Hong Kong by Rohan Quine sliding from joy to nightmare and back a plane-flight frames a journey into Jaymi?s and Angel?s polarised identities and perceptions where past and present merge in an obsessive fantasy of love death horror and apocalyptic beauty. At take-off warmed by the presence of his friend Angel beside him Jaymi starts to doze and enters a fog of horror in seeming to remember that their destination lies in the past not ahead ? forcing him to explore those hellish possible events lying beneath the surface of our present and future always ready to break through into reality. A Distinguished Favorite in the NYC Big Book Award 2021.
