Bunnag may be the best-known surname in Thailand because of the size of the clan, its historical role, and the name's blessed two-syllable brevity. The resounding title of this book suggests a grand tale of the clan marching through history. Not so. This is an intensely personal account of one person refinding himself in the shadow of the past.
Siam Society is holding a talk on "Chariot Of The Sun", which will get participants to learn more about the House of Bunnag, a powerful noble family during the late Ayutthaya kingdom and early Rattanakosin period, today at 7pm.
