Why a Booktrail?
Many of the stories in the collection are set in Thailand or have a Thai connection
Mist on the Jungle
What you need to know before your trail
A lascivious businessman who prefers lady-boys to ladies, a depressed captain who threatens to sink his own ferry, a woman who eats more than food, and a Thai widow finding her late husband’s roots in Crete—these are just some of the engaging characters who appear in this original collection of short stories.
Often amusing, sometimes comical and occasionally sad, these tales are always touching. William Peskett writes with a light touch and brings a sensitive and sympathetic eye to bear on a wide variety of characters and an unusual mixture of relationships.
Travel Guide
Thailand
A short journey around Thailand and beyond
Rather like a bus tour where you hop on and off, only catching the briefest glimpses of the country and its people, this collection drops you right at the heart of the busiest markets, the centre of the crowds and even the sex bars to see the good and the bad.
You won’t be the only farang (westerner or foreigner) caught up in this culture clash, but you may be shocked at the level of complexity of just what goes on in the sex industry and the shadows which haunt them.
