Store description
I am a private seller living in Hua Hin, Thailand and offering a curated and continuously expanding collection of books focused on China, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. The selection includes works on art, symbolism, religion, anthropology, textiles, history, travel, cultural studies, and regional literature. The collection continues to grow, and future additions will include more titles on religion, religious iconography, spiritual traditions, philosophy, and related cultural fields. A significant portion of the inventory carries an important provenance: Books numbered MKK-001 to MKK-102 come from the personal library of W. Koslowski, also known as K. Flow, author of The Chinese Encounter with Opium. His collection reflects deep interests in Chinese cultural history, opium studies, Taiwan, and Southeast Asian societies. Every book is individually inspected, catalogued, and described according to AbeBooks condition standards. Descriptions include details on binding, covers, dust jackets, interior markings, and any signs of age or wear. As a private seller, I aim for honest, transparent, and accurate listings. Additional photographs or clarification are available on request. All orders are packed securely using protective materials to ensure safe international delivery. Shipping prices reflect actual postal costs plus packaging. Combined shipping is possible when appropriate, and orders are dispatched promptly. Customer communication is an essential part of my service. I try to respond quickly to enquiries regarding editions, condition, provenance, availability, or shipping options. My goal is to provide a trustworthy, smooth, and positive buying experience for readers, researchers, collectors, and anyone with an interest in the cultures of Asia. Thank you for visiting MKK Books by Mike Hua Hin. I hope you discover something meaningful for your collection as this unique library continues to grow and evolve.…

I aim to respond within 24 hours, often sooner.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
