..".the J.D. Salinger of Siam"
--George Axelrod, Oscar-winning screenwriter of "Breakfast at
Tiffany's"
"S. P. Somtow doesn't write like anybody else...and when he
wants to spook you, he can drive the chill bone deep."
--Dean Koontz
In an exotic re-telling of the fairytale of Bluebeard, a New Age
thirty-something is swept off her feet by an enigmatic Thai
millionaire and soon finds herself in Bangkok's brave new world of
shamans, shopping malls, and high society serial killers.
Originally written as a cliff-hanging serial for Bangkok's "The
Nation" newspaper, "Bluebeard's Castle" is a roller-coaster novel
that leapfrogs from genre to genre and culture to culture, turning
the western preconception of Bangkok as a "city of temples and
prostitutes" on its ear. A darkly comic odyssey populated with wild
characters, with intimate glimpses into a culture rarely written
about.
