blurb

This is a semi-autobiographical novel about the forbidden love between a married British foreign correspondent and a Eurasian doctor in Hong Kong, interlaced with many aspects of historical references to China and Hong Kong. The book was made into the 1955 film, Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing, which also inspired a famous song by Sammy Fain.

#JuneItsElectrifying Day 29: This illustrated anthology of some of the most romantic love poems ever written is perfect for #LoveIsAManySplendoredThing - but is not on Litsy‘s database. Another book which I referenced in my review is tagged here. I also loved how the editors managed to find the exact painting that seemed to have inspired the creation of the love poem.
