About this edition
Three stories about the everyday life in Bangkok, three stories of the comedie humaine, funny, musing, tragic, true, hard-boiled and poetic. About bargirls and expats, about thet Thais and the Chinese and the farangs, about the rich and the poor and about Bangkoks soul – about the Thai Boundaries of the Heart.
“Think Dashiell Hammett in Bangkok.” (San Francisco Chronicle)
“Moore’s flashy style successfully captures the dizzying contradictions in [Bangkok’s] vertiginous landscape.” (Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review)
“To paraphrase Graham Greene in another context, Moore is our man in Bangkok.” (Bangkok Post)
