ORIENTAL STYLE / Восточный стиль

To the world at large, Oriental style has increasingly becomes less remote, mysterious and inaccessible; instead, it represents a culturally significant approach to decoration that can easily be adapted to modern lifestyles.

Meanwhile, the traditional use of bamboo can be appropriated to create a natural, yet thoroughly contemporary feel. Shanghai Decor is a unique decorative style resulting from the marriage of Chinese elements & Western design, and it inself plays an essential part in evoking the nostalgia of old Shanghai. This volume is an authentic, insightful, and visually breathtaking survey of architecture, furniture and decorative accessories in some of the most sophisticated urban properties in China. 0

Tetart-Vittu Francoise Auguste Racinet, The Costume History

Originally published in France between 1876 and 1888, Auguste Racinet's Le Costume historique was the most wide-ranging and intelligent study of clothing ever published. Covering the world history of costume, dress, and style from antiquity through the end of the 19th century, the great work-"consolidated" in 1888 into 6 volumes containing nearly 500 plates-remains, to this day, completely unique in its scope and detail. Racinet's organization by culture and subject has been preserved in TASCHEN's magnificent reprint, as have excerpts from his delightful descriptions and often witty comments. Perusing these beautifully detailed and exquisitely colored illustrations, you'll discover everything from the garb of ancient Etruscans to traditional Eskimo attire to 19th century French women's couture.

The Costume History is an absolutely invaluable reference for students, designers, artists, illustrators, and historians; it is also an immensely fascinating and inspirational book for anyone with an interest in clothing and style.

Lin Tom The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu

Orphaned young, Ming Tsu, the son of Chinese immigrants, is raised by the notorious leader of a California crime syndicate, who trains him to be his deadly enforcer. But when Ming falls in love with Ada, the daughter of a powerful railroad magnate, and the two elope, he seizes the opportunity to escape to a different life. Soon after, in a violent raid, the tycoon's henchmen kidnap Ada and conscript Ming into service for the Central Pacific Railroad. Battered, heartbroken, and yet defiant, Ming partners with a blind clairvoyant known only as the prophet. Together the two set out to rescue his wife and to exact revenge on the men who destroyed Ming, aided by a troupe of magic-show performers, some with supernatural powers, whom they meet on the journey. Ming blazes his way across the West, settling old scores with a single-minded devotion that culminates in an explosive and unexpected finale. Written with the violent ardor of Cormac McCarthy and the otherworldly inventiveness of Ted Chiang, The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu is at once a thriller, a romance, and a story of one man's quest for redemption in the face of a distinctly American brutality.
