Tew wrote the moving <em>Lek and Mrs. Miller.<\/em> Exceptionally well-received he decided to write a collection of stories surrounding the Tsunami. These were inspired by his experiences working in the South of Thailand for an NGO helping and talking to those who were suffering from the aftermath, and who suffered the devastation at first hand and dealing with the loss of their families and friends, as well as, in some cases, their livelihoods. Though their themes are tied to the tragedy that took place the stories touch on universal issues that go beyond the actual event such as loss, recovery and continuation after a tragedy. The collection, published to commemorate the tsunami in 2004, is a deeply moving and poignant read for all contemporary fiction readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The collection of short stories, published to commemorate the tsunami in 2004, is a deeply moving and poignant read for all contemporary fiction readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8724,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[21063],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-8723","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-history","7":"author-by-author-tew-bunnag","8":"publisher-river-books","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>After The Wave - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: After The Wave, Pages: 224 Pages, Publish Date: 25th Sep 2019, Author: Tew Bunnag, ISBN: 9786167339597.
