| Facebook | Disenchanted with his life in America, Joe Jeffries flies to Bangkok to pursue what his friend describes as "The rockstar dream on the backpacker budget." On his first night in Bangkok, however, terrorist bombs explode and his plans begin to go awry. As he soon discovers, the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the world. This book is very raw and contains a lot of truth about both Thailand and life in general. It's the kind of book that might have happened if Charles Bukowski had taken a trip to Thailand. It's intended for adults and not for the faint of heart.

| Facebook | Twitter | Instagram |
Can the past threaten the peace of the present? Can a family secret when revealed break a family? Can a marriage survive betrayal?
Author of Orangery of Dreams and Other Stories, TK Seehra, explores these questions in her new collection of Short Stories, The Fault in Chillies and Jam. Find yourself immersed in the different worlds in these stories, and follow the characters as they deal with situations that challenge and test them. Experience the array of emotions they go through, from being mildly irritated to being consumed with rage and from being content to being euphorically ecstatic. They hurt, they love and they are jolted by life’s tests. Faced with these challenges, they make decisions that shape their destiny. Whether their decisions are met with acceptance or rejection, watch them stand committed to their convictions in an attempt to live the lives that they want to in order to embrace their true selves. The tales in this collection will move you, make you think and may even inspire you to live the life you want on your own terms.
