Features: Namu has published many books, but this one is special. The special thing about it is that it wasn’t "written" by Namu—it was "made" by Namu and many others, bit by bit.
What is a chest? Oh, that’s the East, it’s the subtle fragrance. Namu collected one hundred chest purses. Wherever she went, she carried them with her. She took them with her to interview people from all over the world, asking them about their understanding of chest purses, sensuality, and the love ways of Chinese women. Among them are the dedicated "woman-maker" Gao Ling, the fashion designer who wants to give women around the world Eastern charm, the beautiful writer Mian Mian who has become a mother, diplomats, painters, and journalists.
The chest purses in the book are fragrant and vibrant, Namu in the book is alluring, the interviews in the book are spicy and direct, and the poems in the book are alluring and lingering. Namu frankly admits that she doesn’t look good in a chest purse; it lacks the shy and coquettish charm of Han girls. Like this book, although it has "color, fragrance, and flavor," the beauty isn’t in the chest purse—it’s in the dreams hidden behind it.
This book is a collection about the sensuality and charm of Chinese women, including the history and evolution of chest purses, the embroidery techniques used to make them. It also features the author’s essays and interviews, as well as passages written by scholars describing the beauty of Chinese women and love letters written by women in the past to their loved ones.
