- Notes:
- Monsoon Country is Pira Sudham's best known novel. Much like Pira's own life it follows a poor farmer's son from the North-East to Bangkok and as an overseas student in England. In this novel you will get an insider's view of poverty and corruption in Thailand's poorest area, the Esarn. Starting in 1954 and ending in 1980 it covers a period of of immense change in Thailand, the clash of Western and Thai values, the student movement and the military repression of the 1970's. -- author's website.
