When photographer Marcel Heijnen moved to the city he was immediately drawn to these photogenic mouse-hunters, and this book is the charming result. While the cats are undoubtedly the furry celebrities of his photographs, each shot delivers an insightful context of Hong Kong’s traditional trades. From dried fish and rice to paper offerings, the backdrop of each shot presents a portrait of Hong Kong’s local culture.
當攝影師 Marcel Heijnen 搬到香港這座城市時，他立即被這些吸晴的老鼠獵人所吸引，成就出這本書的迷人之處。雖然毛茸茸的貓咪無疑是他作品中的主角，但每張照片都同時傳達出香港傳統行業的背景。從乾貨到米及手工紙製品，每張照片的背景都展現出香港當地文化的寫照。
