Please bring back the book of Tiki, I need it. And I'm sure theere are many of us in the Tiki comunity who feel the same way. While we are eagerly awiting Sven's new boo Tiki Modern, we still want to be able to look at The Original.

I was seriously tempted by the upcoming title "Tiki Modern" as this particular kind of kitsch was nonexistent where I live. After I bought "The Book of Tiki" to gain at least some insight into the topic, I changed my mind. The book may present a lot of pictorial material, otherwise unobtainable, but the text is somewhat lacking in a systematic approach. The book also contains DTP errors.
Disappointing, as I really love the rest of my Taschen books.

The best, no all are different. I always admired Taschen's sense of fun and play. Though it does lack seriousness.

in the book "Manet" by "Gilles Neret", I found many typing error with incorrect spelling. Especially in page 21. Here are corrections :
1. courtisan courtesan
2. paedophilia pedophilia
3. was send was sent

Also this book is full of vocabularies that are unfamiliar. The author seems to like to use big words to be admired by the readers, or show off his intelligence? It made me frustrated reading it. I couldn't go on one sentence without opening a dictionary.. I have read many art history books but this is the most hard-to-read book! Also the author mentions some names of some famous philosopher, without explanation of the contents of the book. Is he assuming that all people have read those books? If he wants to enumerate names of some books that most people have never heard of, he should at least mention what it was about.
I am actually a big fan of Taschen books. I just didn't feel good with the Manet book..

Dear Agatha,

thanks for your comments about the text of the book "Manet" by Gilles Neret.

We are sorry to hear that our book was so difficult and frustrating for you to read. But having checked the text, which is written in British English, again by another native speaker, we can say for sure that it is of a high quality. The difficulties you mention may be also due to the particular metaphorical and idiomatic language that the author has used in this book. Concerning the typing errors you listed, paedophilia and courtesan are used in British spelling, and therefore, no mistakes. With the other spelling you are right, there we have a spelling mistake which we will correct in eventual reprints. We are sorry for this.

We hope that you continue to enjoy TASCHEN books despite this!

Best,
TASCHEN

Paedophilia is spelt correctly. It's only spelt pedophaelia in the USA.

Taschen is the greatest publisher on the planet, I own many of your books. Particularly on Art and Film. I don't know if you have a list of suggested future titles? but if you do, I passionately believe this should go on it...

American painter: Walter Tandy Murch (1907-1967)

He seems to be unjustly missing from the deluxe coffee table book market - his unique flavor of 'magic realism' would be at home amongst your other great Art/Design titles.

Keep up the good work.
