Matt Lucas' first collection, The Boxer's Soliloquy, explores the intricacies of Thailand's most famous martial art. Set against the squalor of Bangkok and in the sweaty confines of Muay Thai gyms, only gradually do these tales reveal their true intentions. These are fifteen stories about the ring, the ropes, the fighters, the smack of bodies against bodies, and the relationships in between.
