Prima edizione
Cloth. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. Ellen Kaplowitz (illustratore). First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. Text provided by Jeffrey Hantover. "Vietnam and its people come alive in this visual journey behind the headlines and the preconceptions of the past. From village huts to the neon bustle of Ho Chi Minh City, Ellen Kaplowitz shows us a Vietnam where tradition still thrives in the changing social landscape, where the bonds of community, of family-living and dead-and the people and the land remain defining constants. We see Vietnam at work in rice fields and on city streets, at prayer, at joyous and emotional family and communal rituals of life and death. Vietnamese proverbs, poems, and prose stretching back eight centuries evocatively underscore the continuities amidst change, while Jeffrey Hantover's text offers social and cultural context to the lives so warmly portrayed. 'A World of Decent Dreams' does not pull back from the toil and struggle of daily Vietnamese life, yet surprises with its broad embrace of a people sustained by tradition and alive to the promises of the future." Approx. 120 full-color photographic illustrations with many full and double-page. 156 pages. 3/4" closed tear on DJ front cover near top corner and some minor shelf-rubbing to DJ cover, elsewise a clean, tight, scholar/collector-worthy copy!
