Mai Pen Rai Means Never Mind

Mai Pen Rai Means Never Mind
An American Housewife's Love Affair with Thailand

Carol Hollinger

A brilliant observer of customs, manners and cultural differences, Carol Hollinger writes frankly and unsparingly of herself and her fellow Americans, and relates both the fun and frustration of communicating with the Thai people - without being coy or condescending. A classic and authentic book, not only for all foreign residents and visitors, but also for those who have never been to Thailand, and even for Thais themselves.

Slow moving but a good look at how western culture fitted in (or not) to the Thai culture of the time. I felt like I was reading Bridge Jones' Diaries at times when the book went a bit 'feminine'.
Good Book, like all, worth a read at least once.
