Chinese Characters: Emails from the Middle Kingdom (Inscribed) - Timonin, Ann; Timonin, Peter

INSCRIPTION FROM "ANN & PETER" on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; creasing  to lower back inside corner; previous owner's name on ffep; very small stain/marks to inside edge; light wear to edges; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; minimal wear; Any non-Asian who has tried to study Chinese characters can tell you that a tiny line or dot makes a difference to the meaning. The same is true in life. Every event makes a difference, even if that difference is too small to appreciate at the time. This story reflects one couple's attempt to observe and comment on China and Chinese culture, one event at a time, as they spent a "gap year" not between high school and university but between work and retirement by living and working in Kunming.
