A Review of Lisabet Sarai’s Raw Silk
By Edward Johns on Dec 2, 2008 in Multicultural Lit Reviews, Multicultural Writing
Here we have Kate O’Neil, a successful software engineer from Boston, whom decides to pick up and leave. After answering an ad she finds herself half way around the world in Bangkok, Thailand. Far removed from her family, a good job and least of all her lover David, she embarks on a trail of corporate espionage, but more important, her sexual awakening. it begins with the man who hires her, whom she finds out isn’t all he says he is. Here she also meets Khun Somtow, part owner of the firm she came to work for, and Gregory Marshall, a very important customer. They each take Kate on a sexual tour of the city, where she goes from being an innocent little irish girl from Boston into a full blown sex maven who enjoys it all.
