Summary Through ancient temples and the lush greenery of Thailand, to the confines of a stranger's bed and a devouring couch, This Jade World chronicles a year of mishap, exploration and experimentation, self-discovery, and eventually healing. It questions the very nature of love and heartbreak, uncovering the vulnerability of being human.
