Asiatische Kurzgeschichten

Geschrieben von Owen Jones, Trevor Aindow, Bernard Foong und 5 weiteren

Erzählt von Daniel Meyer-Dinkgräfe

Asiatische Kurzgeschichten entstand aufgrund einer Abfolge von Ereignissen an einem Wochenende im Mai 2015. Ein Freund von mir erzählte mir, dass er einige Kurzgeschichten mit asiatischen Hintergrund gesammelt hatte, dazu erklärte ich ihm, dass ich auch welche hatte, ein anderer Freund schrieb mir eine E-Mail, dass er eine Kurzgeschichte über Pattaya schreiben wollte und einer meiner thailändischen Cousinen schickte mir ihr jüngstes Foto, das auf dem Buchcover.

Es war, als ob mir jemand oder mehrere etwas sagen wollten.

Owen Jones

Author Owen Jones, from Barry, South Wales, came to writing novels relatively recently, although he has been writing all his adult life. He has lived and worked in several countries and travelled in many, many more. He speaks, or has spoken, seven languages fluently and is currently learning Thai, since he lived in Thailand with his Thai wife of ten years. "It has never taken me long to learn a language," he says, "but Thai bears no relationship to any other language I have ever studied before." When asked about his style of writing, he said, "I'm a Celt, and we are Romantic. I believe in reincarnation and lots more besides in that vein. Those beliefs, like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around', Fate and Karma are central to my life, so they are reflected in my work'. His first novel, 'Daddy's Hobby' from the series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya' has become the classic novel on Pattaya bar girls and has been followed by six sequels. However, his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a young teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. After fifteen years of travelling, Owen and his wife are now back in his home town. He sums up his style as: "I write about what I see... or think I see... or dream... and in the end, it's all the same really..."
