Arid Dreams: Stories Book Information:

ist exploration from Thailands preeminent contemporary woman writer: "each of her stories poses its own moral challenge, pleasurable and unsettling at once." (NPR.org) In thirteen stories that investigate ordinary and working-class Thailand, characters aspire for more but remain suspended in routine. They bide their time, waiting for an extraordinary event to end their stasis. A politicians wife imagines her life had her husbands accident been fatal, a man on death row requests that a friend clear up a misunderstanding with a sex worker, and an elevator attendant feels himself wasting away while trapped, immobile, at his station all day. With curious wit, this collection offers revelatory insight and subtle critique, exploring class, gender, and disenchantment in a changing country.
