Arid Dreams
ByPublisher Description
In thirteen stories that investigate ordinary and working-class Thailand, characters aspire for more but remain suspended in routine. They bide their time, waiting for an extraordinary event to end their stasis. A politician's wife imagines her life had her husband's accident been fatal, a man on death row requests that a friend clear up a misunderstanding with a sex worker, and an elevator attendant feels himself wasting away while trapped, immobile, at his station all day.
With curious wit, this collection offers revelatory insight and subtle critique, exploring class, gender, and disenchantment in a changing country.

“Arid Dreams trata-se de uma colectânea de treze contos escrita por Duanwad Pimwana, que é considerada uma das vozes mais importantes da literatura tailandesa. Não gostei de todos os contos, alguns deixaram-me bastante desconfortável, mas no geral foi uma leitura positiva.
