I might be slightly wonkey, but doesn't that front cover of the book look like a tsunami is just about to hit the Star Ferry? If so, why would anyone want to buy this? |

Interesting observation. You might be the first one to notice this, not even the artist herself did. It's a really beautiful little hard cover book with glossy full-colour HK-photo-based illustrations, basically hand-tinted blueprints which were also for sale last night. About half of the opening reception guests were Lammaites and quite a number of the books were sold at $100 each. We got our hand-signed and -dedicated copy already. Available in HK bookshops soon, well before Christmas. |
