Sometimes a publisher and author together create a beautiful book, a keepsake as well as a joy to read, and Amber Books (London, UK 2021) has done just that in publishing a selection from the ancient Chinese Book of Songs ("Shi-Jing") . Highly recommended. ...The care of the binding, the rich smooth interior paper, makes it feel like someone has brought precious music and knowledge from far away, and left it at your doorstep.

Synopsis
Claimed by some to have been compiled by Confucius in the 5th century BCE, the Book of Songs is an ancient anthology of Chinese poetry. Produced using traditional Chinese bookbinding techniques, this newly-translated edition is a selected anthology of 25 classic poems presented in an exquisite dual-language edition., Claimed by some to have been compiled by Confucius in the 5th century BCE, the Book of Songs is an ancient anthology of Chinese poetry. Collecting poems over a number of centuries, the anthology - sometimes known as the Classic of Poetry (or Shi-jing) - is the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry, comprising 305 works dating from the 11th to 7th centuries BCE. Some poems are shorter lyrics in simple language that are folk songs which record the voice of the common people, addressing love and courtship, political satire and protest. Other poems are about court life and dynasties. Nearly all of the songs are rhyming. In the same way that Homer's epics took hold within the West, the Book of Songs played a role in spheres far beyond literature, with a lasting influence on education, politics and communal life. Produced using traditional Chinese bookbinding techniques, this edition of the Book of Songs is a selected anthology of 25 classic poems presented in an exquisite dual-language edition.

    This was a fantastic purchase from this seller and I can’t be more pleased. The book arrived in excellent condition and the purchase price and shipping costs were extremely reasonable. The seller packaged and shipped the book with care so it looks fantastic, just like the photographs in the listing. The high quality of the book’s printing and binding are very impressive, and the seller included a Mylar jacket cover which I appreciate. I highly recommend this seller for your next book buy.

    Packed with great care, and shipped first class, which was quite thoughtful since I do not live on the continent. The book was certainly as described, but really more like new. The seller was kind enough to work with me to help make the purchase possible, so it was a great value. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
