Fehltritte im Isaan is the German version of a book by Peter Jaggs known in English as Blundering Around Isaan. Both versions can actually be obtained from DCO — a link to their site is at the top of this post.
In recent years Thailand has enjoyed a remarkable rise in the number of tourists coming to visit this fascinating and beautiful country. Thailand has been discovered, and hordes of travellers are now flocking to experience the diverse culture, friendly people and delightful beaches for themselves. Despite this rapid increase in tourism, there are still villages in the Northeast of the country where things have changed little for hundreds of years.
Join the author during his unexpected six-month sojourn in Northeast Thailand. Meet farmers, fishermen, spirit doctors and Thai boxers and share in his misadventures as he comes to terms with the warm community of a rural Isaan village. Sometimes hilarious, often touching, occasionally tragic – but never dull – this book takes the reader into the heart of the Northeast, and provides an insight into a traditional way of life and a culture that is fast disappearing.
In den letzten Jahren erfreut sich Thailand eines bemerkenswerten Anstiegs in der Anzahl an Touristen, die dieses faszinierende und schöne Land besuchen.
Thailand ist sozusagen entdeckt worden und Horden von Reisenden scharen sich mittlerweile hier, um die einzigartige Kultur, das freundliche Wesen seiner Bewohner und die herrlichen Strände selbst zu erfahren.
Trotz dieses rapiden Anstiegs des Tourismus gibt es im Nordosten des Landes immer noch Dörfer, in denen sich während Hunderten von Jahren nur wenig geändert hat.
Begleite den Autor zu seinem unbeabsichtigten sechsmonatigen Aufenthalt in Nordost-Thailand. Mach die Bekanntschaft von Fischern, Geist-Heilern und Thai-Boxern und nimm Teil an den Missgeschicken, die ihm unterlaufen, während er sich in der warmherzigen Gemeinde eines ländlichen Isaandorfes einlebt.
Bisweilen heiter, oft rührend, gelegentlich tragisch – aber nie langweilig – entführt dieses Buch den Leser in das Herz des Nordostens und verschafft ihm so Einblick in eine traditionelle Lebensweise und eine Kultur, die heute in rascher Auflösung begriffen ist.
Peter Jaggs kommt aus Essex in England und begann mit Anfang zwanzig, Thailand zu bereisen, wo er den größten Teil der letzten zwanzig Jahre verbracht und jede Provinz des Landes besucht hat.
Peter hat immer geglaubt, dass richtige Arbeit ein notwendiges Übel ist, das nur unternommen werden sollte, wenn Mittel für ausgedehnte Bar- oder Angeltouren oder zum von ihm bevorzugten Herumhängen an Stränden benötigt werden.
Dennoch schreibt er gerne über sein geliebtes zweites Zuhause und hat Artikel, Geschichten und Gedichte in verschiedenen Zeitungen und Magazinen publiziert. Dies ist Peters zweites ganzes Buch. Seine erste Arbeit, eine panoramische Erzählung aus Pattaya, „From Beggar to Butterfly“, wurde 2006 veröffentlicht.
Obwohl Peter Frauen liebt – vor allem solche thailändischer Herkunft – ist er nicht verheiratet, da er das Gefühl hat, dass eine Ehefrau eine ähnlich große Einschränkung seiner Freiheit und seines verantwortungslosen Lebensstils darstellen würde wie eine reguläre Arbeit. Außerdem würde keine Frau auf Gottes Erde außer seiner Mutter es längere Zeit mit ihm aushalten.
Peter Jaggs was born in Essex in England and has spent the best part of the last twenty-five years in Thailand since he was in his early twenties and has visited almost every province in the country. In the past, Peter has written poetry, articles and short stories for various newspapers and magazines including the popular “Tangled Lines’ series of fishing columns which ran for seven months in the ‘Pattaya People Weekly’ newspaper.
Peter has written five books to date; his first book, ‘From Beggar to Butterfly’- a collection of short stories about Pattaya – was described by the legendary Bernard Trink in the Bangkok Post as ‘one of the best books on Pattaya written’. His second book, “Blundering around Isaan’, has reached best seller status on many major distribution websites in Thailand and has also been released in German as ‘Fehltritte im Isaan’.
Peter Jaggs also wrote the first ever technical freshwater fishing guide in the English language ever published (“A Freshwater Fisherman in Thailand’) and his latest book, ‘Hooked on Thailand’ was published by Heaven Lake Press in November 2009.
Peter is currently based between Devon, England and Pattaya City and spends an equal amount of time in both of his homes, with frequent excursions to other favorite venues in Thailand and around Asia.
