On April 17, 1975, the black-uniformed Khmer Rouge filed into Phnom Penh to open a new and appalling chapter in the story of the twentieth century---a holocaust that claimed between two and three million dead and devastated a culture half as old as time. On that day, Pin Yathay, or Thay, and seventeen members of his family joined the seething mass of humanity in the forced evacuation of Phnom Penh. Moved on from camp to camp, they became 'New People', displaced city dwellers forced to live and work as peasants. As malnutrition bred rampant disease and the Khmer Rouge singled out dissidents for sudden death, the body-count mounted. Wracked with pain and sickness, robbed of all he had owned, Thay witnessed his family dying around him. Living on the edge of dying through a nightmare beyond imagining, Thay survived to make a desperate break for freedom across the Me Tuk river. "Stay Alive, My Son" has been acclaimed in America as "the most important human rights story of the decade". It is the powerful personal testament of a man who came alive out of the killing fields.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***First impression of the first UK edition, in its original dustwrapper, in very nice, clean, bright condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Codice articolo 7897
