Download or read book 倫敦襍碎 written by Yee Chiang and published by Signal Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chiang Yee's account of London, first published in 1938, is original in more ways than one. Not only one of the first widely available books written by a Chinese author in English, it also reverses the conventions of travel writing. For here the "exotic" subject matter is none other than London and its people, quizzically observed as an alien culture by a foreign writer.
