Author : Wilson, Paul
ISBN : 9786162220951
Category : Erotica & Adventure
Pages : 213
Format : e-book
Wickham’s marriage had dissolved and so had his cushy job as a writer and academic at an Australian university. These two losses were irretrievable, but he was determined to recover title to the condominium that he had lost to a British crook in Phuket, Thailand. At the urging of his friend, Steve, he went to Angeles in the Philippines, the so-called sex capital of the archipelago, to join the band of ex-pats, seen by locals and outsiders as “white trash” drifting among the fleshpots of Asia. But there was a price to be paid. Wickham had to pen a feature story about the Yank, an American who had crossed the line and turned Angeles into a paedophile paradise. “Sin city” was provocatively raunchy before but now, thanks to the Yank, it was criminally nauseating, and their expatriate lifestyle was under threat.
Set in Thailand, the Philippines and Australia this fast-paced novel is erotic, gripping and provocative. The book deliberately takes issue with the essentially negative stereotypes that surround Caucasians living in Asia and challenges the reader to do the same. |

Soot yort na kha!
What a surprise find - an old-fashioned page-turner but with contemporary themes and characters, many of them not very likable but I certainly wanted to know what happened next ... hope there is going to be a sequel!

An Eyeopener!
A rollicking tale told well. Corruption, sleaze and greed that carries the reader through the back streets of two colourful S E Asian cities, Angeles City in the Philippines and Phuket in Thailand. Old Asia hands will nod their heads, while those unaccustomed to these parts, will shake theirs!

White Trash
I liked the two stories woven into one and because I know the area, I thought the description of the area was realistic. Because the story held my interest, I read it at every coffee break so I finished it in a couple of days. If you like a provocative plot, read this book.

Christopher G Moore, Canadian writer based in Thailand
‘Criminologist Paul Wilson’s White Trash is an intriguing and vivid true crime portrait of foreign drifters hatching schemes guaranteed to realize illicit profits in two of the best known spots in Southeast Asia — Angeles City and Phuket.’

Scott Gardner, Australian author of books for adolescents
‘It was a pleasure to read White Trash’. It sucked me in, big time. It hooked me in and I finished it in a couple of nights. Gutsy stuff.’
