Description

Bangkok Days Lawrence Osborne's Bangkok is a city that defies conventions. For him, it was a place to escape pain and find new beginnings. With just a few dollars a day, he discovered a world where ancient traditions blended with modern excesses. In this vivid account, Osborne takes us on a journey through the city's hidden corners, from its canals to its restaurants, and into the lives of those who call it home. A guide without inhibitions, he shares his own experiences as a foreigner in a place that is both familiar and strange. This book is a love letter to Bangkok, a city that revived Osborne's faith in adventure and the world.
