Tom Carter’s CHINA: Portrait of a People captures diversity of 33 Chinese provinces



Beijing, China – As the 2008 Summer Olympics commence, all eyes are on China. But far from being the celebration envisaged by Chinese leaders, the first six months of 2008 have seen unrest in Tibet, worldwide protests against the Olympic torch and the devastating earthquake in Sichuan.

This attention has raised new curiosity: Who are the Chinese? How do they live, work and play? How much do we really know about the 1.3 billion people who inhabit this vast country?

I can only hope that someday a great love will give me such a notebook. A notebook with poetry, full of love and raw honesty...and fingers?

So wrong, yet oh so right. This is the hottest club in Jiangmen...and maybe this side of the Yangtze River.

As a single bumbling foreigner in a sea of millions of Chinese people, you sometimes find it necessary to go to the only USA stronghold in the mainland-McDonald's.

I don't know exactly what it is that makes me long for home...but something about seeing children with fat, greasy, grubs all over their worthless plastic McToys just gets me misty.
