“...during a time when people in Thai society, including members of literary,... harbored resentment toward, ridiculed and disparaged writers and poets... who were “red”, to take such a stance openly was practically a crime...”

Ida Aroonwong - editor ‘Unspeakable Dreams’

“When we humans must exist among heaps and heaps of garbage all the time, we’re bound to turn into garbage before long.”

#Bright by @duanwad is next up for the #TenTweetThread book review. “Duanwad Pimwana’s bittersweet novel reveals glimpses of the inner life of Thai culture in such an entertaining manner that one can’t help but absorb its social realist ingredients with pleasure and ease.”

[WordsWithoutBorders @wwborders]
