ontinents, Asia is the gayest. Deep down, you've probably had your suspicions all along and I'm here to tell you those suspicions are correct.' So begins Gaysia, Benjamin Law's wildly witty investigation of gay life in the biggest continent. We follow him as he takes an in-depth look at resorts for gay nudists in Bali, transsexualism and three formal genders in Thailand, China's underground gay resistance, Japan and the most breathtakingly messed-up porn' religious fundamentalists of all persuasions keen on 'curing' homosexuality in Malaysia, sex workers and the spread of HIV in Myanmar and the decriminalization of homosexuality, gay pride parades and encounters with gay royalty and a popular spiritual guru in India. Hilarious, perceptive and poignant, Gaysia is a refreshing look at an aspect of Asia that has gone ignored too long. Key Features:Hilarious and fast-paced, Gaysia will appeal to readers of other witty travel writers such as Bill Bryson, A.A. Gill and Louis Theroux. A researched and thorough look at gay culture in Asia, this will find a large market among India's vast gay movement for being the first accessible, highly entertaining writing on the subject. Funny, clever and perceptive, Gaysia will appeal to sociology buffs interested in the substructures within Asian societies, with a particular focus on relationships.
