A photographer hired to witness a murder, a colour-blind sperm donor, a ghost who misses his friends, a Canadian who pretends he’s from Latvia, and a woman sure her children’s will be the last human generation—these are just some of the fascinating characters with leading roles in this poignant collection of short stories.
Often amusing, sometimes comical and occasionally sad, these tales are always touching.
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.
