Given that the book is half coffee-table book / half memoir, each spread is 50% prose / 50% illustration. Why is that though? And what's the best way to tackle such a tome?
Welcome to The (Unlikely) Hong Konger Read-Along. In this series, I've made a video for every chapter of my book so that, even if you're not a big eyeballs-on-a-page reader, you'll still be able to get stuck into the story of how The Hong Konger art collection started accidentally.
Chapter starts: 0:38
Chapter ends: 3:12

Get the book for HK$310 at most local Hong Kong English-language booksellers, including Kelly & Walsh and Bookazine, or online here through one of my favourite local stores, The Lion Rock Press, who also sell HK$350 prints of The Hong Konger art collection.
