Colour frontispiece and 13 other plates reproduce Chiang Yee's Chinese brush paintings of London scenes and people. Most of the paintings are done with black ink and reproduced in lovely monochrome tones - which suits foggy and rainy London very well indeed. The book also contains a series of essays on Chiang's experiences as a Chinese expatriate in Britain - always a curious and interested observer - as well as several of his poems in Chinese calligraphy and small line drawings. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la série
First published in 1938, this book by Chiang Yee is original in more ways than one. It was one of the first available titles written in English by a Chinese author, but it also reversed the expected conventions of travel writing, as the exotic subject becomes London and its people, as observed by a foreigner.
