International photographer Joseph Polleross trains his keen eye on all aspects of the city: its people are shown at work and at play; major heritage sites are juxtaposed with monuments and modern consumerism; and glimpses are offered into exclusive spaces, from high-society parties to the simplest slum dwellings. Accompanying the pictures is text written by John Burdett, a writer whose best-selling novels have become synonymous with Bangkok. Burdett’s incisive insights into Bangkok life, combined with these unique photos, create a highly original presentation of one of the world’s most famous capitals.
