Requests:  0 Summary:  Told from the tender perspective of a young girl who comes of age amid the Cambodian killing fields, this novel is based on the author's personal story. For seven-year-old Raami, the shattering end of childhood begins with the footsteps of her father returning home in the early dawn hours bringing details of the civil war that has overwhelmed the streets of Phnom Penh, Cambodia's capital. Soon the family's world of carefully guarded royal privilege is swept up in the chaos of revolution and forced exodus. Over the next four years, as she endures the deaths of family members, starvation, and brutal forced labor, Raami clings to the only remaining vestige of childhood, the mythical legends and poems told to her by her father. In a climate of systematic violence where memory is sickness and justification for execution, Raami fights for her improbable survival.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waianae Public Library Adult Fiction Ratner Checked In Add Copy to MyList
