Monsoon Country by Pira Sudham

The novel for which Pira Sudham was nominated for the Nobel Prize for Literature

Much like Pira's own life, the tale follows a poor farmer's son from the North-East (Esarn) to Bangkok and as an overseas student in England. This novel covers a period of immense change in Thailand, the clash of Western and Thai values, the student movement and the military repression of the 1970's.
