description: Markets, beaches, mountains, killing fields, temples, and restaurants are among the stopovers in this travel memoir of a woman's journeys through Cambodia. A mode of transportation called the tuk tuk and distinctive dinner menus that serve such appetizing dishes as “Soap” and “A Fried Monk” are described with a writer's eye for detail and insight into Cambodian culture. This compelling narrative offers an inspiring tale of a woman's experience traveling solo in an ancient, beautiful country that has only recently been opened to tourists.
