AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Journalist Luke Williams travels to Asia and finds, for the first time, people weirder than him: Westerners who go to Asia for things they can't find at home—riches, wives, ladyboys, cheap living and even cheaper drugs, cults, spices and ascended masters. In this searingly honest book, Luke invites you into his headspace as he immerses himself in these environments while tracing the history of Westerners—from the Greeks to Marco Polo and the colonialists—and their extreme experiences in the east.'
