Pressestimmen

"A compelling and intricate tale." --VanityFair.com"The complex family relationships are carefully and delicately described, and details of the history of the period . . . are intriguing. The artwork nicely balances the text . . . And beyond their aesthetic qualities, the paintings bring significant emotional and cultural context to this story of a young artist's struggle for self-acceptance." --NewYorkTimes.com"Evocative . . . McMullan brings his early years alive through sprightly prose and the delicate, violet-tinged paintings that grace every page." --Entertainment Weekly"[A] compelling story . . . Leaving China is a collection of 55 short stories, each illustrated with a stunning full-page watercolor impressionistically illuminating McMullan's recollections." --TheAtlantic.com"Who knew that behind all those wonderful watercolors I have admired since coming to New York are all these magic memories of childhood? It is like finding pearls inside unexpected shells." --Peter Sis, author of The Wall: Growing Up Behind the Iron Curtain"[McMullan] tells his tumultuous story in a series of spreads with a one-page essay facing a full-page illustration. This structure gives the reader time to exhale and contemplate between emotional episodes. There are soldiers in the streets, long painful separations, and quiet pleasures.

Klappentext

A memoir in paintings and words by internationally acclaimed illustrator and New York Times bestselling author James McMullan. James McMullan was born in Tsingtao, North China, in 1934, the grandson of missionaries who settled there. As a boy, Jim took for granted a privileged life of household servants, rickshaw rides, and picnics on the shore--until the Second World War erupted. Life changed drastically. JimÂ’s father, a British citizen fluent in several Chinese dialects, went off to fight with the Allied forces. Jim and his mother moved from one place to another--Shanghai, San Francisco, Vancouver, Darjeeling--first escaping Japanese occupation and then trying to find security, with no clear destination. For Jim, those ever-changing circumstances took on the quality of a dream, sometimes a nightmare, a feeling that persists in the stunning full-color paintings that, along with their accompanying text, tell the story of Leaving China.
