Little Pink Book is the melodramatic, multimedia story of Limei, a sensitive, romantic, and artistic girl living all alone in Shanghai. Limei spends her days making latte art and her nights expressing herself on her personal blog. Sadness is her favourite food. But when will her love life finally find her?!? After drawing the attention of a powerful, handsome, and cruel talent scout, the plot thickens... and evaporates into fantasy. What does Limei want from us, what do we want from her, what really happened that night on the rooftop - and how bad can a book really get? From Olivia Kan-Sperling, an author not that much older than Limei comes a classic coming-of-age story in a radically new form. Written somewhere between polaroid and porn popup; proverb, pop lyric, and propaganda, this is a novel for getting stuck in your head. Originally conceived to accompany an installation by Diane Severin Nguyen at the Rockbund Museum in Shanghai, Little Pink Book is a labour of love, a perverse mistranslation, and an exercise in humiliation. Above all, it is a cautionary tale about writing itself. And somewhere in there... lies Limei's bleeding-pink heart.
