In a move away from his usual murder/detective type novels, author Guy Lilburne has chosen Pattaya’s colourful ex-pat community as the basis of his latest fictional release, “Living the Dream”.

The writer says the book centers on a group of foreign residents, “larger than life characters”, who spend their time playing dominos in the (fictitious) ‘Sloan Square’ bar in Pattaya, but at a deeper level it is more a story of “relationships and friendships.  How people deal with getting old.  How they deal with life & death in a foreign country.”

TV star Pat Murray (Only Fools and Horses... Mickey Pearce) and radio DJ Clive Harrop (Johnny Diamond) pose with Jules Lee, Burnie Sinclair, John Farmer and Gerry Davis during the cover shoot for Guy Lilburne’s new book “Living the Dream.” TV star Pat Murray (Only Fools and Horses… Mickey Pearce) and radio DJ Clive Harrop (Johnny Diamond) pose with Jules Lee, Burnie Sinclair, John Farmer and Gerry Davis during the cover shoot for Guy Lilburne’s new book “Living the Dream.”
