"Painfully bored" with school, 17-year-old Karen Connelly set off for rural Thailand to spend one year as an exchange student. This is her intensely honest account of living in a beautiful but sometimes infuriating culture."I already look forward to reading Touch the Dragon again--and again."--Timothy Findley
