The Blind Earthworm in the Labyrinth

Tuned to the rhythms of the soap operas that air on Thai television each night, and written with the consuming intensity of a fever dream, this novel opens an insightful and truly compelling window into the Thai heart. On the day Chareeya is born, her mother discovers her father has been having an affair with a traditional Thai dancer. From that moment, Chareeya's life is fated to carry the weight of her parents' disappointment. With her sister, Chalika, she grows up in an insular world, until joined by the laconic orphan, Pran, and together they navigate the labyrinth of their own making, each trying to escape their fate.
