Publisher's Synopsis

On Heat

An anthropologist is beguiled by the reproductive customs of a remote rainforest tribe. But as his daughter recounts, when he brings a young native woman home he discovers that all is perhaps not as it seemed.

Sins and Virtues

An ageing master calligrapher finds that fame brings burdens of its own, as he recalls his life, his art, and the forces of change that threaten to overtake him.
