“Your fear of letting go prevents you from letting go of your fear of letting go.”
John Burdett, Bangkok Tattoo

“Don't ask me when I first mastered the obvious.”
John Burdett, Bangkok 8

“Bangkok is one of the world's great cities, all of which own red-light districts that find their ways into the pages of novels from time to time. The sex industry in Thailand is smaller per capita because the Thais are less coy about it than many other people. Most visitors to the kingdom enjoy wonderful vacations without coming across any evidence of sleaze at all”
John Burdett, Bangkok Tattoo
