圖書描述

Evocative, funny and full of life, this is a beautifully observed childhood memoir of growing up in colonial Hong Kong in the 1950s.

As an inquisitive seven-year-old, Martin Booth found himself with the whole of Hong Kong at his feet when his father was posted there in the early 1950s. Unrestricted by parental control, he had free access to hidden corners of the colony normally closed to a Gweilo, a “pale fellow” like him. Befriending rickshaw coolies and local stallholders, he learned Cantonese, sampled delicacies such as boiled water beetles and one-hundred-year-old eggs, and participated in colourful festivals. He even entered the forbidden Kowloon Walled City, wandered into the secret lair of the Triads and visited an opium den. Along the way he encountered a colourful array of people, from the plink plonk man with his dancing monkey to Nagasaki Jim, a drunken child molester, and the Queen of Kowloon, the crazed tramp who may have been a member of the Romanov family.

Shadowed by the unhappiness of his warring parents, a broad-minded mother who, like her son, was keen to embrace all things Chinese, and a bigoted father who was enraged by his family’s interest in “going native,” Martin Booth’s compelling memoir is a journey into Chinese culture and an extinct colonial way of life that glows with infectious curiosity and humour.

看瞭一大半。 明顯港島山頂彆墅生活沒有 九龍多彩

評分

How am I relatable to him?

評分

非常生動的迴憶。小鬼佬讓我發現這個城市還有那麼多值得探索和欣賞的東西,慚愧自己太缺乏好奇心和探索精神瞭。

評分

英文版的城南舊事。北平換成瞭50年代的香港。

評分

Martin這個小鬼老,在書中無異於HK-hand,逃課穿梭於香港的大街小巷,跟著媽媽成為探索香港的狂熱分子。我隻是一直納悶,作者寫這本書時已經過半百瞭,何以保存如此栩栩如生的童年記憶,要知道Martin當時的年紀也纔八九歲。
