"Suggested for mature readers" -- p. [4] of cover.
"The neon pulse of Asia. When Americans venture to the other side of the Earth, they might as well be on another planet. Tokyo days, Bangkok nights follows the exploits of young travelers lost on the streets of two exotic, electric locales: Tokyo days: A gadget-geek in search of the latest in cool consumer tech discovers that every routine detail of daily existence causes a culture-clash. Featuring hyper, high-fashioned high school girls, over-the-top rock-stars, and dangerous Yakuza gangsters. Bangkok nights: When a couple takes a getaway vacation to resurrect their fading romance, it isn't long before a runaway elephant, a teenage prostitute, a transsexual kick-boxer and a pair of seedy expatriates show them that even the best intentions lead to dark places in this beautiful, mysterious city" -- p. [4] of cover.
