Résumé
FREEDOM SEX AND A MEAT CLEAVER is a young man's quest for personal freedom and self-discovery. It's the riveting stories of Pierce Colter, a naïve American, seeking adventures in Southeast Asia during the tumultuous period from 1973 to 1978. Inspired by actual events, Pierce's adventures extend beyond Thailand to the neighboring country of Laos during the CIA's secret war with the communist Pathet Lao.
From border towns of Cambodia during Pol Pot's communist Khmer Rouge takeover of Phnom Penh to hidden Chinese waterfront opium dens on the island of Penang off the coast of Malaysia. To Bangkok jails and on and on, and on to one too many slings in Singapore. In his quest, Pierce discovers, as with all freedom, there's a price to pay with each step.
