If you are thinking of going to Thailand, you need to read this book! English tourist Col has the knack for putting his foot in it time and time again, making embarrassing cultural blunders in a country where whistling after dark will attract evil spirits, where pointing with your feet is the height of bad manners, and where there is definitely a wrong way to sit while wearing a sarong. In this dark romantic comedy about culture shock, Col has met and fallen for Lucky, a Thai girl, in his home town of London and follows her to Bangkok - where things don't turn out as he expects. Will he make it to one of those tropical beaches that he's heard so much about, or will Lucky get her way and drag him along to a series of Thai temples? What is the correct etiquette when you want to tell a Thai person that you've seen so many temples that you're 'templed out'?" And what about those friends of Col who wind him up by saying that Lucky's just after his money? Col knows better - doesn't he? templed out (tɛmpᵊld aʊt), adjectival phrase - an expression used by travellers to describe a physical and mental state of exhaustion induced by having visited a large number of temples.

Practical information on settling down, engaging domestic help as well as how to behave in various business scenarios make CultureShock!

From the author of Another Kyoto and Lost Japan, a rich, personal exploration of the culture and history of Bangkok, and an essential guide for anyone visiting the city Alex Kerr has spent over thirty years of his life living in Bangkok. As with his bestselling books on Japan, this evocative personal meditation explores the city's secret corners. Here is the huge, traffic-choked metropolis of concrete high-rises, slums and sky trains; but also a place of peace and grace. Looking afresh at everything from ceramics to Thai dance, flower patterns to old houses, Kerr reveals one of Asia's most kaleidoscopically complex cities. Another Bangkok will delight both those who think they know the city well and those visiting for the first time.
