luluanator Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hi I am back in Bangkok after being away for a few years. I would like to have a bit more of an intellectual life here this time. Does anyone know of a book club around the sukhumvit area, or would anyone be interested in starting one with me? Lulu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will only be in Bkk f/t to April when I will be spending most of my working time in Kanchaniburi but I will be back and forth Edited January 27, 2008 by sgunn65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Not quite sure what you mean by a book club but have you tried the Neilson-Hays Library on Surawong Road? If not, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFD Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Yeah, please post some more details about this library here. Didn't think I'd come across one in BKK. BFD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiksilva Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Its located on Surawong Road on the left hand side just before the British Club. It's a lovely old property, colonial style, and has a good range of English language books both to loan and for reference. They have a book club there, which I think meet on a weekly basis.

nnookk Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Try Dasa Book Cafe, located between Sukhumvit 26-28. I visit the place quite often. http://dasabookcafe.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
