雄仔叔的《Some Kind of a Mood》卡帶書

丨簡介丨這本詩集是由香港「講古佬」阮志雄（又稱雄仔叔叔）在80年代於香港和倫敦兩地所撰寫的英文詩歌。 這些詩分為兩部份，當中有3首詩由雄仔叔叔朗讀，並伴隨著由三位香港獨立音樂家：史嘉茵、曾永曦、黃衍仁演奏的音樂，邀請讀者經歷獨特的閱讀之旅。 這些音樂附在書套上的卡式磁帶裡，成為書本的一部份。來自倫敦的華裔書籍裝釘藝術家陳邦英，在不久前嘗試以回收來的塑料袋作編織，演譯了她跟雄仔叔叔的「偶然的相遇」並成為本書的封面及封套。本詩集共製作了300份。由Small Tune Press在2021年2月出版及發行。

This poetry book is a collection of English poems written in the 80s in Hong Kong and London by HK storyteller Yuen Che Hung aka Uncle Hung. The written poems are split into 2 sections and three selected poems followed with music performed by three independent HK musicians: Wilson Tsang, Sze Ka Yan and Wong Hin Yan which enhances the reading experience. This musical session is captured in a cassette tape as a salute to the 80s and is uniquely attached to the book cover.

British-Chinese bookbinding artist Anh Tran serendipitously created the cover art when she experimented with weaving upcycled plastic bags collected from a London market.

An edition of 300 is produced for this unique poetry publication. Published by Small Tune Press, February 2021.
