| Description |
Ready to change the world, youth in Asia take new
names, learn languages, and experiment with sex, drugs and lifestyles --
from spectacular poverty to salacious stardom. Set amid economic booms
and epic disasters, Johnson's work is rich with emotion, wit and
insights into relations across cultures and sexes."Great writing style. Other writers couldn't even imagine his front-line experiences."
Christopher G. Moore, author of 17 novels set in Asia
"Original, brilliant and a very entertaining read. I couldn't put it down once I started." Claire Leow, Bloomberg News, Singapore
"Profoundly entertaining ... essential reading for anyone visiting the country."
Colin Donald, The Scotsman, United Kingdom
"A brave dive into the heart of Thailand ... a Thai On the Road."
Fred Varcoe, Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan
"Sensitive and crystal clear at once."
Oliver Reichenstein, Information Architects, Tokyo
