With a narrative that is funny, thrilling, suspenseful, and occasionally twisted, Thanachart captures the sheer awe of witnessing snowfall, the excitement of the first countdown at Times Square, and the heart-pounding experience of killing lobsters. Dive into the story that unfolds his first English dream, the electrifying atmosphere of his first NBA game, and the unexpected encounter with a robber!

From the moment it hit the shelves, New York 1st Time became an instant bestseller and prompted a reprint within a week, marking Thanachart as a favorite among Thai teens until today.
