Have you changed your shopping habits since writing this book? Not dramatically. What is different is what I notice when I walk into a store. I walked into a Gap recently and I immediately saw that there was no clear pattern to how old the customers were. There were some people in their late 30s, some people in their early 20s.

Instead, beautifully recreated interiors invite you to walk through the daily life of a rich 19th century Peranakan family, led by guides in period costume. You'll feel like you're snooping around in someone's home and that the residents have merely wandered upstairs or into a back room for a moment. What other museum insists you take off your shoes before exploring...
