Description Beijing 1974 - Trish and Pauline are Maoists on a New Zealand Students' Association trip to Red China. Also on the trip is Oliver, a radical would-be writer. Twenty years later, Trish is a second-term Labour MP, plotting the dumping of Labour Party leader, Mike Moore. Fifteen years later Pauline and Oliver meet by chance in a pub at Mangere Bridge and look back at the choices they've made and the worlds they've lived in - a surprise emerges for the future.
