Bliss Montage

by Ling Ma

Bliss Montage weaves together eight unique stories that explore the blurred lines between the fantastic and the mundane. Ling Ma takes readers on a journey through life's peculiarities and delusions, delving into themes of love, loneliness, friendship, and the essence of home. From a house shared with all of one's ex-lovers to the transformative power of an invisibility drug, and the promise of an ancient burial rite that could cure all ailments, these narratives offer a poignant look at the human condition. They demonstrate how the extraordinary and the everyday intertwine, challenging our perceptions and confronting us with the heartrending similarities between our wildest dreams and our lived realities.
