Neither does Fellows when he ends his book with nothing but despair and frustration.

Nope. I'm pretty sure they'd throw the book at you

If you were interested in
Restless Souls, there's another great book (well better than
Souls) called the
The Lost Executioner by Nic Dunlap. It's not about Thailand but tells the author's story about finding the man who ran Tol Sang prison (SG-21) in Phenom Phen durring the days of the Khemer Rouge.
Also of SE Asia interest is
Finding George Orwell in Burma by Emma Larkin. What a great read if you're interested in either Burma or the man.
