Liu Dan, a TV food show presenter, hides herself in her 10-squaremeter rented room and reads a book in Shijiazhuang, Hebei province, 2013. She lives independently. As a book aficionado, she reads to get herself more prepared in front of camera. Sometimes she has to taste a dish five or six times before finding the right words, which turns pleasure to torture if the flavor is strong. [Photo/Icpress.cn]
