First They Killed My Father, A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers

by Loung Ung

  • BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
  • 2001
  • PAPER
  • 240 PAGES

By the age of eight, Loung Ung had survived the deaths of both her parents and two sisters at the hands of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge. Loung Ung and her brother were eventually rescued by humanitarian workers and brought to the U.S., and here she retells the harrowing story of those brutal years spent in Cambodia as a young girl. Written in the present tense, it's an eye-opening eyewitness account of the atrocities suffered by millions of Cambodians from the perspective of a survivor.  (CBD13, $13.99)
