Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Two Years in the Kingdom is a lighthearted yet informative look at life in Thailand, from the perspective of an American Peace Corps Volunteer. Part personal narrative and part essay, the book is a chronicle of the author's two years in Pakham, a rural village in the littlest-known part of the Thai Kingdom—the hot, Lao-speaking northeast known colloquially as Isaan. Written with the visiting foreigner in mind, Two Years provides a candidly honest and instructive look into rural Thai lifeways, foods, languages, and customs.
