This is a slice-of-life book about a Lao salon owner (or possibly Thai, the author doesn't specify and the names can be either Thai or Lao).
It gives insight on how service workers are overlooked, undervalued, and often times invisible. It also gives us a look into how the salon workers go about their day. The challenges they face. Ning is the owner of the salon. She is a former boxer but doesn't want anyone to know about her past or about her life. She is the narrator.
Entertaining and insightful this is a quick read.
