Details of "Off the Rails in Phnom Penh by Amit Gilboa"Date Submitted:
10/12/06 (Edited 10/12/06)
Description:
Into the Dark Heart of Guns, Girls and Ganja
"Like a gonzo from Hunter S. Thompson." Time
"This book is phenomenal. I will never forget it." The Nation
"... invigorating, exciting, packed full of fun ..." Bangkok Metro
Phnom Penh is a city of beauty and degradation, tranquillity and violence, and tradition and transformation; a city of temples and brothels, music and gunfire, and festivals and coups. But for many, it's simply an anarchic celebration of insanity and indulgence. Whether it's the $2 wooden-shack brothels, the ganja-pizza restaurants, the AK-47 fireworks displays, or the intricate brutality of Cambodian politics, Phnom Penh never ceases to amaze and amuse.
