BOOK DISCOVERY
22 walks in Bangkok
First published 2013
22 walks in Bangkok is an English-language guidebook by Ken Barrett, published in 2013. Its subjects identify guidebooks, walking, tours, Thailand, and Bangkok, while the title specifies a collection of twenty-two walking routes or experiences without describing their contents. The book’s metadata therefore supports attention to walking as a way of encountering urban space. It raises questions about pace, scale, route selection, and the relationship between guided movement and personal discovery, while avoiding assumptions about particular neighborhoods or destinations.
