…the Khmer Rouge soldiers had even set fire to our houses and rice barns, so that the invading Vietnamese soldiers wouldn’t be able to claim them. Pg 5 Over and over again we had been told by the Khmer Rouge soldiers that Cambodia was one big family, and that the Communist Party was our parent. And yet, in trying to create a new “family,” the Communists destroyed my own family, ripping apart parent from child, brother from sister, husband from wife.
