{"product_id":"jin-yucheng-stories-scenes","title":"Jin Yucheng: Stories \u0026 Scenes","description":"\u003cp\u003eShanghai, the second-largest city in the world, is a hub of humanity. Never sleeping, never quiet, it is a flourishing center of commerce, finance, and art. To Jin Yucheng, bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eBlossoms\u003c\/i\u003e, Shanghai is home. His art is steeped in the city’s rhythms and quirks. The paintings in this volume compose a love poem to Shanghai, while acknowledging the lonely absurdity of modern urban life, and offering incisive commentary on traditional and modern China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the famous Lujiazui skyline to the bustling crowds, from cozy corners to vibrant streetscapes, these pages capture the Shanghai of the present. Yucheng also delves into Shanghai’s history, paying particular attention to the 1960s-1990s. Later chapters focus on Chinese culture, the contrast between megacities and remote villages, and Yucheng’s favorite animal – the horse. While this book is the perfect companion piece to \u003ci\u003eBlossoms\u003c\/i\u003e, a novel set in late-20th-century Shanghai, it will also appeal to anyone interested in Chinese culture and art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781788841146\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ACC Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46238555275416,"sku":"9781788841146","price":1058.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/2157\/2504\/files\/212.png?v=1747875008","url":"https:\/\/tienda.b-o-o-n.com\/en\/products\/jin-yucheng-stories-scenes","provider":"Boon Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
