A young boy growing up in Hong Kong's housing estates in the 1970's tells about his life and the people living closely around him. The world shown is a lost world, a rabbit's warren of people pressed together, trying to survive. The complex story and stunning illustrations, among the best we've seen, have made this comic book a bestseller. "Tak impressed with his straight forward but impactful storytelling. As he portrayed the transformation of the place and the society, he was also reflecting the psychological evolution of the generation born in the 70’s. Nevertheless, the visual languages he used was complex yet naïve" Lily Lau
