PATTAYA EXPATS CLUB

On Sunday 24th February 2008 I will be speaking before the Pattaya Expats Club. The event starts at 11.00 a.m. at the Grand Sole Hotel, Second Road Pattaya. Here’s a link http://www.grandsolepattaya.com/location.htm for location details and http://www.grandsolepattaya.com for information on the hotel. I will be talking about writing in an Asian context. The title of the talk is: “The Ghost of W. Somerset Maugham: Or why there is no vintage gossip.” I’ll be discussing the nature of “truth” and the connection between how truth is perceived depending on a number of cultural factors. If you are in Pattaya on the 24th of February, please drop in as you don’t have to be a member of the club to attend a Sunday meeting.
