Description and Table of Contents

Description

Richard's generation do not see themselves as tourists - they are travellers who like to go to dangerous places. Drugs play a key role in the traveller culture as do images of the Vietnam War. When Richard flies to Thailand, he learns of the beach from a man who subsequently commits suicide.
