Bangkok Pool Blues - Thryft
Bangkok Pool Blues - Thryft

Unique Bangkok pool halls - vibrant, gritty underworld.

If the vibrant underbelly of Bangkok intrigues you, "Bangkok Pool Blues" could be your portal to a lesser-known world. You'll experience the city's pool scene through the eyes of a Vietnam vet who has immersed himself in the local culture. Tom Crowley's narrative, coupled with Yoonki Kim's captivating photographs, offers an authentic glimpse into Bangkok's spirited pool halls and the characters that inhabit them. It's not just a book; it's a cultural trip to the heart of Thailand's capital.
