One of Thailand's most famous stories of love and war has been translated into English for the first time.
The Tale of Khun Chang Khun Phaen features a beautiful woman, a heroic young man - Thailand's answer to Casanova - and another, richer suitor.
Does anyone know where one can purchas a copy?

Pity you didn't ask a couple of months ago as Phasuk kept her working draft in a public web directory on her Chula Staff website and it was freely downloadable. I might still have a copy on my work computer (I printed the book out so I don't know if kept the pdf or not). If I can find it I'll PM you, be a few days though - I'm on holiday right now). Before you read the book you should read this, http://www.fringer.org/wp-content/wr...hris-baker.pdf for some excellent background on the book.
