Editor’s Note: For our Summer 2026 reading recommendation, we’re pleased to share the latest installment from Greg Buford. “Kept: An American Househusband in Cambodia,” following up on his memoirs of his family’s experiences during his wife Dana’s foreign service posts in India and France, strikes a delicate balance between his usual offbeat adventures as a trailing husband and his unwelcome exposure to the underworld of human trafficking and “sex tourism” in Southeast Asia (circa 2004-2007).
See below for his responses to our new round of Trailing-Spouse Book Club questions, related to this book and his writing process.
