A Visual Treasure

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Ms. Ching truly pays homage to author Cao Xuequin's Dream of the Red Chamber. Her photographs carry us on a personal sojourn exploring the central love story and the unfolding allegory behind it. Beautiful and evocatively enticing. A lovely coffee table book to share with my friends.

Wonderful book!

I really enjoyed this book! Wonderful and stunning to look at. I read "Dream of the Red Chamber" many years ago and thought this book was an interesting visual interpretaion. Loved it!

Beautiful Artistic Photographs to a wonderful story

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Makes an impressive gift! The photographs were taken in China and give life and excitement to an old tale, Story of the Stone. I would highly recommend giving this beautiful book to family, friends and clients.

...the camera is a delicate paintbrush...

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
"In the hands of Linda Ching the camera is a delicate paintbrush. The images she has created to tell the tale of "Story of the Stone" summons the senses--like delicate water paintings, opalescent colors emerge. In silky browns and beiges she arouses ecstatic figures; a wistful woman is caught in a gossamer mirror; a twig soars alone, overlaid in sunlit leaves. A fresh new look at an old Chinese masterpiece." -- Moana Tregaskis
