A secret letter. A forbidden desire. A love that defies morality.
Set in the transformative May Fourth era, The Room Beside the Sea tells the story of Keou, a young man who uncovers the truth behind his cousin's loveless marriage and finds himself drawn to his cousin's wife—Telly. What begins as sympathy soon turns into a forbidden affair that challenges every social rule they've known.
This powerful psychological novel explores the tension between tradition and individual freedom, desire and guilt, love and restraint. With lyrical prose and intimate detail, Telly offers a moving portrait of emotional repression, youthful confusion, and a desperate search for meaning in a rapidly changing world.
