A Backpack And A Bit Of Luck
Stories of a traveller with no sense of direction
MPH Publishing 2013
USD9.90
Also available at all good bookstores
Unemployment is not a bad thing when job searches lead her to quirky and often charming characters in a
British pub and a gambling den. A flat tyre along a dark silent highway ends in a late-night tom yam session
and lessons on patience, humility and the kindness of strangers. She helps raid an ostrich nest at a farm for
a monster-sized sunny side up. A throw of the dart sends her to Myanmar on a bumpy cross-country bus ride
to a feast of salad, fried bugs and sago palm worms. And her adventures as an apprentice Odissi dancer in India
is an epic in itself.
Go on. Pick this up and find out what one phone call, a swing of the steering wheel, or a knock on the door can lead to. You might be surprised.

"Our collection kicks off with two stories by Zhang Su Li, one of Malaysia’s finest contemporary travel writers.
In Perak, Zhang encounters a wizened old lady who survived World War II, and an enigmatic young woman who
invites her home for tea. Later on in her third story, which takes place in Kedah, she meets a street urchin who
is seemingly possessed by a Hindu god." - Eric Forbes, Senior Editor, MPH Publishing.
