清代文物拍賣創下紀錄

作者:約翰·F·伯恩斯

一件18世紀的花瓶,出土於一戶人家,以6,950萬美元的價格成交,據信是中國古代文物拍賣史上的最高價。


她努力學習鋼琴和聲樂,於1974年獲得倫敦音樂學院的執照,並於10年後獲得獎學金。

詹妮弗從未讓生活的挑戰擊垮自己。幾年前,她飽受濕疹和氣喘的折磨。她堅持游泳、騎自行車,並嘗試家庭療法,並在《濕疹與食物過敏:隱藏的原因? 》(1997年)一書中詳細闡述了她的一些想法。

大衛·基納斯頓寫道:四年前,在讀詹妮弗·沃斯的《呼叫助產士》之前,我先研究了一下出版商的宣傳——「它迎合了巨大的懷舊市場……一部悲慘的回憶錄與一段引人入勝的社會歷史相遇」——我滿懷信心地預料到,這本書會是一堆自我放縱、感傷的廢話。結果我大錯特錯。

Qing Dynasty Relic Yields Record Price at Auction

By JOHN F. BURNS
The $69.5 million for a 18th-century vase, found in a family home, is believed to be the highest ever paid at auction for a Chinese antiquity.

She studied the piano and singing intensively, becoming a licentiate of the London College of Music in 1974, and was awarded a fellowship 10 years later.
 Jennifer never allowed the challenges of life to defeat her. Some years ago, she suffered from a painful bout of eczema and asthma. She undertook a regime of swimming and bicycling, as well as home cures, and detailed some of her ideas in Eczema and Food Allergy: The Hidden Cause? (1997).
 David Kynaston writes: Four years ago, surveying the publisher's hype before reading Jennifer Worth's Call the Midwife – "appeals to the huge market for nostalgia ... misery memoir meets a fascinating slice of social history" – I confidently anticipated a dollop of self-indulgent, sentimental tosh. I could not have been more wrong.
