  1. Despite having a growing reputation as a smart-arse , I have a serious side , and love reading travel based novels . heres a few from my shelf..

    A Woman of Bangkok - Jack Reynolds

    Jack Reynolds (among the 10 best Novels written about Asia , 1956 , fantastic witty story , gives an insight to Thailand in the 50's from a westerners viewpoint)

    Jasmine Nights - Sp Somtow , novel about growing up in Thailand , by a Thai middle class writer.

    Letters from Thailand - Botan , Translated by Susan Fulop ,

    about a Chinese guy moving to Thailand in 1948 , the Thai version is used in the Thai education systen still  today , a very good entertaining read.

    Video Night in Kathmandu - Pico Iyer - excellent Travel book.

    have hundreds more , literaly , but these are a few that stand out about Thailand and Asia.

    Enjoy!

  2. I would be interested too , compred to Thailand-uk website this is pretty liberal , not as much as Bangkoktonight , but a nice middle ground. Could you pm me the original post so I can have something juicy to read over Sunday Dinner?

    Bud
