|
(Buch) |
| Inhalt: |
| As a young American, Harry Hervey dreamt of traveling to Asia. In 1923, he arrived to see Hong Kong, Macao and Guangzhou. His impressions of southern China are lyrical and detailed, atmospheric and informative. From the basement "dives" of Kennedy Town to the private dining rooms of Queen's Road, Macao's Praia Grande to its fan-tan houses, Hervey is a fascinating flaneur. So too in Guangzhou, where Hervey encounters those fleeing warlord violence and receives an audience with Sun Yat-sen. |
