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.
