Set against a beautifully observed Thailand of the 1950s, this is the story of a young Englishman's infatuation with a dance hall hostess named Vilai, who all Bangkok knows as the White Leopard.
Acknowledged today as one of the most memorable novels about Thailand, A Woman of Bangkok was first published to critical acclaim in London and New York in the 1950s and is a classic of Bangkok fiction.
Jack Reynolds worked for the Bangkok Post and other journals as writer and editor, sandwiched between further unaccompanied postings with the UN in the Far East and Africa. He finally returned to journalism in Bangkok in the seventies and was a favourite contributor of articles on a range of local topics with a strong popular following in Thailand.
