Extractions: The novel that caused Pira Sudham to be nominated for the Nobel Prize for Literature. Much like Pira's own life it follows a poor farmer's son from the North-East to Bangkok and as an overseas student in England. In this novel you will get an insider's view of poverty and corruption in Thailand's poorest area, the Esarn. Starting in 1954 and ending in 1980 it covers a period of of immense change in Thailand, the clash of Western and Thai values, the student movement and the military repression of the 1970's.

Extractions: Pira Suddham e' il piu' importante letterato thailandese, uno dei piu' importanti scrittori a livello mondiale. E' nato nel 1942, in un piccolo paese della provincia di Buriram, Napo, Nordest della Thailandia, Isaan, da una famiglia di agricoltori. Come tutti i ragazzi thai, doveva aiutare la famiglia nel lavoro dei campi e tener dietro a una mandria di bufali. A quattordici anni pero' i suoi decidono di mandarlo a quando vince una borsa di studio del governo della Nuova Zelanda, per studiare lingua e letteratura inglese nelle Universita' di Auckland e Vittoria. Nello stesso periodo i suoi primi racconti sono publicati nella famosa rivista Lanfall. Del periodo in Nuova Zelanda Pira dice: " Devo tantissimo alla Nuova Zelanda per avermi dato l'unica possibilità della mia vita di imparare, non attraverso la recitazione e l'imparare a memoria le lezioni e i libri, un metodo largamente praticato in Thailandia, ma attraverso il pensiero critico, la formazione delle opinioni, attraverso il porre domande e la discussione". Dalla Nuova Zelanda Pira Sudham si sposta in Australia. Qui scrive la sua prima novella

BOOKS - MOVIES - MUSIC Bookazine Book Review: The Force of Karma by Lang Reid This book (ISBN 974-90079-1-3) was written by Pira Sudham. Published this year, it is the much awaited sequel to his Monsoon Country published in 1988. Pira Sudham is an interesting man in himself, coming from the Esarn region of Thailand, and he is able to write with accuracy of the plight of the disadvantaged from that area. He became a temple boy when he was 14 years old and sold artefacts to tourists to put himself through university. Following his winning of a scholarship to New Zealand, his career never looked back, becoming a well known and respected author, writing in the English language. He is undoubtedly an activist, an agent for change. His books deal with the life of the Esarn people and the socio-economic-political changes that are occurring within Thailand. He also writes with his heart on his sleeve, and it is possible to see Pira Sudham himself through the words ascribed to one of the principal characters, Prem Surin.

Extractions: WORLD CULTURES V SYLLABUS ver. 2 BIC 4374: DIFFERING VISIONS AND REALITIES Course Description: World Cultures V seeks to explore the premises underlying the nature of reality and the meaning of human existence across cultural groups within the context of the emerging global village. During the semester we will examine the facets of that village by exploring some of the following issues: differing ways the nature of reality is perceived; the interaction among environment, language, religion, myths, and life cycles in the formation of culture; varying definitions of the meaning of human existence, how cultural change takes place, how cultures may be compared, whether communication across cultures can take place, and whether accommodation or conflict is an outcome of cultural interaction. The course will allow students to explore the range and meaning of cultural diversity by considering a series of alternative models for what culture is and how cultures are integrated. In addition, each student will participate in one intensively illustrated case study of a culture fundamentally different from his or her own. This exploration will seek, given the limitations of texts, artifacts, and resources, to communicate a native perspective, while explaining the difficulties of doing so. Specific cultures selected for investigation in this course are the Maya of Highland Guatemala, the Zulu of South Africa, and the Thai culture of Southeast Asia.
