Does Bangkok have a centre? How would you classify that Thai smile you just received by height and angle? What do the flames and curlicues of Thai design have in common with conch shells and cactus? After shopping, nightlife, and temples, you start to wonder where the appeal of Bangkok really lies. Sequel to Alex Carr's award-winning Lost Japan, Bangkok Found takes you on a journey to the origin in this series of meditations on the city. With wit and a wealth of anecdotes from thirty years experience in Bangkok, Alex probes beneath the surface, as he moves from being a shopper to a shop owner, and from an island-hopper to an island developer. He relives the myth of old Bangkok, watching masked dancers perform by moonlight at his old teak house, only to find that modern artists are also creating a mystical new city based on cultural fashion.

Bangkok is a city that moves too quickly to be pinned down. Life is a constant game of hide-and-seek, of places lost and found. The heart of the city is easy to overlook in the heat and blare and glitz of the place, but has been captured in Lost & Found Bangkok by five photographers who live there and love it.
