Anna, a widowed Englishwoman, and her young son arrive in Siam in 1869 with trepidation. Anna has been hired for a teaching position in the royal place. Upon meeting the Royal Kralahome, she fears her friends might have been right: A country as "backward" as Siam is no place for a proper young Englishwoman. And when she meets the king, who is unbearably headstrong and arrogant, she is quite positive she has made a huge mistake. But then Anna begins her post as governess to the royal children (all sixty-seven of them!), and it is not long before they teach her to love the beauty and excitement of this strange new land. Suddenly she has more friends than she could ever have hoped for. Yet, in the kingdom of Siam there are rules Anna cannot accept. As her relationship with the king grows, the conflicts between them grow as well. If they are to overcome their differences, Anna and the King will have to meet somewhere between East and West.
