Why are these people smiling, writer Jerry Hopkins like many thousands like him, came to Thailand for a visit in the 1980's to find out & ended up a permanent resident with a temporary visa, a big white farang haunting the bars and back alleys of seedy Bangkok.

His essays explore the mystery and mayhem of "The Land of Smiles" to hilarious & sometimes disturbing effect, travel with him to a place where water buffaloes are gay, insects are dinner, dildos are lucky charms, and your wildest adolescent fantasies can come true, for a nominal fee, the subject sometimes done to death but this is an ever popular title on Canterbury Tales shelves.
