"Take half a dozen old women, a monk, sundry vendors, a few kids, a movie director, a madman and a half-wit; add a soda bottle and the silver shadow of lotuses; shake well; and presto: rich and taut and sweet and tart, Time, crowned by the 1994 SEA Write Award, is a masterly cocktail of laughs and tears.
A must-read for all over forty – and for all those of all ages who want to understand the changing values of Thai society and the unchanging urges and mores of man."
