FROM: Gavroche Magazine, Bangkok

TITLE: Anguished Love Affairs


With "Hello My Big Big Honey!" journalist Richard S. Ehrlich and documentalist Dave Walker, penetrate the intimate relationship which unites Bangkok's bar girls and their "farangs".

To affectionate nicknames ("sweet cuddles", "my mosquito") the girls from the go-go bars reply "money," "a better life".

Some foreigners understand the message, "When I'm rich, I'll buy you a helicopter," others sink into despair, "I would like to be your dog, just to have the right to raise my eyes and look at you".

The abundance of letters comes close to being indigestible however, and to read "Hello My Big Big Honey!" at one sitting leaves the reader drunk on ardent declarations.

Despite everything, the book is a meticulously carried-out survey, entirely free of the greasy imprint of voyeurism.
