Oriental Tales Volume I eBook Jason Gaskell Hyomin Hwang
What I enjoyed most about the stories/essays in Oriental Tales, Volume One is that these are not the kind of stories that you might come across in other flashy, slick travelogues that are more fluff than stuff. Instead, what the reader gets in this wonderfully compiled collection are stories off the well-traveled path that are, given the personal touches of the authors, far more appealing than a lot of the stuff you read elsewhere. Having lived in Asia since 1989, and traveled extensively throughout Northeast and Southeast Asia, I appreciated the personal touches the authors put into their stories and essays. As you read these stories, you feel you are right there with the authors experiencing an Indonesian legend about a Queen of the Sea, a fight club on the Thai/Burma border, a snake charming school in Mae Rim, Thailand (I was there in 1994) and people eating a certain kind of worm in Lombok. These are the kinds of stories that would be shared with friends and colleagues after returning from one's travels and that is what makes them all the more interesting for us to read in this collection.Jeffrey Miller
