Thai Book Store
Go on and spoil yourself with a Thai Book or two. You will be amazed as to what is available at the book stores now. If not in the country in which you reside, then Asia Book Store in Bangkok is a great place to start. It's one of my favourite books stores ever. Many of the books on offer cover numerous topics of some of Thailand's best and most interesting insights. If you cannot find the book you are searching for there, then you can also purchase these fine books online. Yes! right here on this page if you like. As with anything in life, these books are not free but the reasonable prices more than make up for some of the excellent content they offer you. If for any reason you could not purchase the Thai book that you would have liked while on vacation in Thailand, then perhaps I can offer some assistance as I have personally read a variety of books on Thailand and other related subjects including Thai culture, retiring and much more. I shall attempt to offer you candid reviews on some of the best authors and their personal insights as well as some of the local Thai Publications that you may want to read. You can of course receive all you own local newspapers in your language at most hotels and resorts around Thailand.
Private Dancer by Steven Leather is a Thai book I would recommend to any guy visiting Thailand for the very first time. I stand to correction when I point out that this book is based on fiction rather than as a true reflection of what might or might not have happened. The images portrayed here epitomize actual events and although Steven has this wonderful way of portraying his characters as very real people falling madly in love, there are surrealistic undertones. After reading the book, I did some research of my own. It tells the story of a young British travel writer (not unlike myself) who falls head over heels in love with an erotic dancer at
Nana Plaza Entertainment Complex
in Bangkok. Therein lies danger. A must read for anybody thinking that falling in love with a beautiful Thai Go-Go Girl is just a simple walk in the park.
