Book Description Paperback. Condition: 2005. A very good copy. This book, by a 25-year-old Thai-American writer, marks the debut of a heart-stoppingly fresh new voice in world fiction. The world described in Sightseeing is gorgeous and lush, painful and candid. Rattawut paints a vivid picture of a Thailand far removed from its exotic reputation. Sightseeing refuses to take the tourist routes or pay the farang prices at the market. In poignant, tough, heart-catching episodes, Rattawut Lapcharoensap takes his readers beneath the surface of Thailand to a place that is dynamic and corrupt, full of pride and passion and fear. In these inter-generational stories of luck and loss, mother and son, Thai and tourist, healthy and sick are bound together. Sightseeing introduces its readers to the young boy and his brother speeding on a moped to the caf. Seller Inventory # 15233525
