Description

Soothsayers is a collection of eclectic short stories born out of real travel experiences. Spanning various locales throughout Asia and beyond, the intimate portrayals of ordinary life herein offer a window to worlds both large and small. From a hip blogger in Taiwan, to a pest exterminator in Hong Kong, to a sulfur miner in Indonesia, to a fungi smuggler in Macau, to an array to taxi / tuk-tuk / motorcycle / jeepney drivers stationed in Osaka / Bangkok / Angkor Wat / Manila, the characters in this novella are a fascinating medley of underrepresented individuals.

Conflating the mystical and the mundane, the spiritual and the everyday, Soothsayers is an exquisite reflection on what it means to savor existence in all of its sorrows and ecstasies. It is a tour de force of literary wit, cultural trivia, and historical mythology. Offering a kaleidoscopic portal into various lives, it provides a glimpse into what it feels like to navigate our increasingly globalized world—one vignette and one spirit at a time.
