He worked as a photographer until he was 39, when he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis.

when he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis 是一个定语从句,非限制性的。修饰39 (years old)。when 等于 and at that time。

在定语从句中,又包含一个what 名词性从句。为了理解,可以简为 he moved to Hong Kong in the throes of a midlife crisis。

句子意思是:39岁之前,他一直做摄影工作。39岁时,他搬到了香港,经历了他所说的中年危机的阵痛。

He worked as a photographer until he was 39, when he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis.

when为关系副词,引导非限制性定语从句,修饰he was 39这个分句。如果改为并列句,则为:

He worked as a photographer until he was 39, and then he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis. (then=at that time. that time=he was 39)

这个句子还可以改为:

He worked as a photographer until he was 39, at which time he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis.

改为并列句则为:

He worked as a photographer until he was 39, and at that time he moved to Hong Kong in what he called the throes of a midlife crisis.
