註釋
It was a time of bullets, bombs, and bloodshed. . . . And for Anita S. Yann, it was childhood. Living in Cambodia during the brutal civil war, Anita and her family eked out an existence in extreme poverty while enduring catastrophic illness and the devastating death of her brother. Then things got worse. When the Khmer Rouge embarked on a campaign of genocide, young Anita was ripped away from her family and forced to work in deplorable conditions, risking her life to scavenge for food in a desperate attempt to survive. Though the Khmer Rouge stripped the Yann family of their home, their possessions, and even each other, the regime would never have the power to destroy their everlasting love and devotion. Through years of starvation and separation, Anita and her family never gave up hope that they would one day be reunited and build a better life in a new world. Anita's compelling memoir is a powerful, haunting, and ultimately hopeful story that proves how right her father was when he promised his children that something good always comes.
