Author: Nanfang Wuting Publisher: Bright Culture Size: 130mm x 185mm Pages: 256 ISBN: 978-988-8716-26-5 【Synopsis】 Margaret and David are no longer a couple, but not being lovers doesn't mean they can't be friends. After becoming friends, they reconnected and now meet regularly to chat about their lives and the world around them. When they were a couple, they spent every moment together, their only deep conversations revolving around their relationship: How much do you love me? What do you love about me? Do you still love me? The world outside of the two of them seemed unimportant, non-existent. Now, she can talk to David about more things, and more interesting topics, than anyone else. Author Nanfang Wuting says: The initial concept for this book was simply to record some of Hong Kong's softer memories – places being demolished and rebuilt, old shops closing down, classic icons disappearing. But unexpectedly, the most significant things to record over the past two years here have been far from soft. "Memories eventually fade. What once felt as deep as the ocean can become as light as the wind. It's not experience that brings acceptance, but time, the greatest enemy of all things. Have you ever loved someone deeply, but now, when you think back, you can't recall what you loved about them? Have you ever hated someone intensely, but now, when you recall, you can't remember what angered you? Forgetting can sometimes be good; painful memories are best left behind. But sadness is fleeting. When time has passed and you wish to remember the details of what happened then, doesn't it feel like your tears were shed in vain if you've forgotten the pain?" "The original intention was to document all that would inevitably pass, but it turns out it was also to preserve truths that would become blurred. This book serves as a reminder for the future: this is what Hong Kong was like these past two years, and this is what its people were like." 【Author Introduction】 Nanfang Wuting Life is a series of guest appearances, Working is like that, and so is love.
