Surviving the killing fields: the Cambodian odyssey of Haing S. Ngor
Biography, Historical biography, Asian history
Human-narrated audio
Summary
Haing Ngor won an Academy Award for his performance as Dith Pran in the film "The Killing Fields" but his own story, of his experiences in Cambodia in the 1970s, is far more harrowing. He tells it simply, without embellishment;… but his book is shocking - he even suggests that some readers may prefer to skip one chapter. It is a story of love, death and incredible courage; a battle against starvation, torture and ideological oppression. Descriptions of violence. 1988.
