Fan Ho books PSA

[Thardy]

I also posted this in the Fan Ho thread in the photo/exhibition forum.

I became interested in Fan Ho through his Facebook page and ordered his new book, "Hong Kong Memoirs". I really wanted the older book Hong Kong Yesterday but could not find it anywhere. A few days ago I received an email about a new printing of "Hong Kong Yesterday" and "The Living Theatre" stating that those who purchased the new book "Memoirs" will be given an opportunity to buy the older books.

I looked on the website www.modernbook.com and did not see where Hong Kong Yesterday and the Living Theater could be purchased.

Maybe Modern Book publishers could shed some light on the availability of HK Yesterday and The Living Theatre.

I heard of this guy a couple of weeks ago. I like his stuff, I have a friend from HK and he remembers the locations of some of his photos.

Thanks for posting the link for those who may want these books. I don't think they can be purchased from the regular site. I was really happy to get another chance to buy Hong Kong Yesterday and did not hesitate this time.

Hi Ben. It is preorder now. dfattty gave a special link to modern books. Hopefully you can order it there. I received the link via email because I had preordered the new book by Fan Ho, "Hong Kong Memoirs".

Hi Ben,

You might want to visit:

METEOR
9A Lin Fook House, 3 Jardine's Crescent, Causeway Bay Link
(MTR EXIT F, opposite to Forever21, besides G2000)
Opening hour: Monday to Sunday 11am to 10:30pm (Including public holidays)

You can drop an email to them or via Facebook to reserve.

On the other hand, pls make some time for yourself to visit Fan Ho exhibition! I was told they do sell Fan Ho book at the exhibition. In any case, send them an email to enquire. They are very responsive.

However if you are getting limited edition, I think it will be only available via modern book. The Hong Kong Memoir only release in Dec 14.


I hope I can make a trip to Hong Kong in early Jan 15.

Cheers

Got my copy of The Living Theatre last night, it's the boxed set with the silver gel print in sepia, #93 of 100. Great book and pairs well with Hong Kong Yesterday which is now in it's 4th edition.

I'm undecided on getting the third book...
