Chinatown Pretty: Fashion and Wisdom from Chinatown's Most Stylish Seniors by Valerie Luu, Andria Lo
5.0
What a lovely book! This is one I'd want on my coffee table for everyone to read and flip through. It's an introduction to different Chinatowns in the United States (and Vancouver, BC, Canada) and its seniors. Each section includes an introduction to the Chinatown with some descriptions of the history and what it is like now. The section introductions are followed by short interviews with the different photographed seniors in a Humans Of New York style. Each senior has something different to say and stories to share. I really like how personal and heartwarming this collection is and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful art book that's also very readable and delightful.
