Books about Thailand
Thailand reading list
Go beyond Lonely Planet, with these wonderful books about Thailand.
Bangkok 8, John Burdett
A plot “[infused] with enough suspense, detail, and dry Asian insight to keep readers rapt as the story careens about the bars and brothels of Thailand's flesh trade, through its cut-rate plastic surgery parlors, and ends in a climax with a fittingly Buddhist twist.”
Mai Pen Rai, Carol Hollinger
“An American housewife's honest love affair with the irrepressible people of Thailand.”
Private Dancer, Stephen Leather
“Often described as the best book ever written about the Bangkok bar scene.”
(Amazon.com)
Also consider the fantastic 'Thai Food' cookbook, by David Thompson.
