hermia Hong Kong

My British manager recommended this book to me. After hearing the fun bits of the book from him, I read it with high expectations. This book totally lives up to my expectations. As an adventurous child, the author explored Hong Kong with an open mind. His lively character enabled him to experience an extraordinary Hong Kong childhood during the 1950s. When he first arrived HK, he lived in Soares Street, a street so close to my flat. His present, a rice bowl for his grandma, was exactly the same rice bowl I used when I was still a child. The author was about 40 years older than me and HK has changed so much over the period but it's fun to read the book and imagine what it was like years ago.

Even if you may not share the same HK knowledge with the author, it will still be an entertaining read for you.
