Hong Kong: Epilogue to an Empire Main edition
Jan Morris
A portrait of the British Empire's last, most anachronistic outpost, as the countdown to the handover gathers momentum. It depicts a city tragically suspended between a colonial past and the uncertainties of China's future. It captures the contradictions and mad terror of Hong Kong.
