Jasmine Fever Confessions of a jaded expat in Thailand Frank Visakay
Format: Paperback 208 pages Date of publication: March 2008 Publisher: Monsoon Books Pte. Ltd ISBN: 9789810589738
When New York chef Frank Visakay traded in the sweaty heat of the restaurant kitchen for the glorious tropical heat of Thailand, he thought he had found paradise. Not only was the lifestyle laid back, the food delicious and the beers chilled but he was even attracting the attention of beautiful Thai women.
Or so he thought. With Jasmine Fever, Visakay offers a series of revelations about his and his fellow expatriates' relationships with Thai bar girls. And, as we learn from one of the eponymously named stories, perhaps he is "looking for love in all the wrong places".
