About this listen

Thailand 1996. The Year of The Rat. Pete, a young travel writer, wanders into a Bangkok go-go bar and meets the love of his life. Joy is the girl of his dreams, young, stunningly pretty, and one of the Zombie Bar's top-earning pole dancers.

What follows is a roller-coaster ride of sex, drugs, and deception, as Pete discovers that his very own private dancer is not all she claims to be. And that far from being the girl of his dreams, Joy is his own personal nightmare.

It's an untypical novel in fact more of a play. Very well narrated and a fascinating insight into the world of prostitutes and bar patrons of Bangkok.

A deep insight into Thai prositution

I read this book about 8 many years ago when I was working in Hong Kong.
it gives a great insight into the culture of Thailand, of which I have visited many times and have friends there.
My copy of the book has done a few rounds around my office where I have handed it to anyone I hear travelling to Thailand.
Well worth a read or listen if you are thinking of travelling to Thailand.
There is one error in the reading in chapter 36 at 13:18. it was joy not Joe.

Amazing book
