Book Description: Hong Kong University Press. Hardback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, Hong Kong x 24 x 365: A Year in the Life of a City, David Clarke, After History with a capital 'H' visited Hong Kong for the 1997 handover, and stayed for the Asian economic slump and the great democracy demonstrations, had moved its spotlight somewhere else, the city was in an in-between phase, without major dramas, where history had only a small 'h'. This time is the subject of this locally-orientated micro-historical analysis of one of the world's great cities - which had lost self-confidence in this period, but which might yet prove to be a city that changes China (and therefore the world). Specifying this time, through colour photographs taken during a randomly-chosen twelve months, David Clarke presents a year in the life of the city in which he has lived for the last two decades. An antidote to the tourist picture-postcard view of Hong Kong so often propagated to locals and visitors alike, these images and their accompanying text are produced from a proximity which enables both a critical engagement with the city and a celebration of its uniqueness. Personal in its perspective, this extended photo essay offers a fabricated journey through the real space of Hong Kong, looking awry at scenes too often photographed before, and looking anew at scenes too often overlooked.
