Title: Read This Book
Review: I've read many books on war and suffering and it's rare that one moves me enough to write a review. Dr. Ngor's memoir is arguably the most powerful book that I've ever read. It's not pretty, and the ending is not nearly as happy as I would have liked (or a Hollywood movie would have), but it does give a ray of hope in the face of such unspeakable horror. Ironically, I found the account of Dr. Ngor's troubled later life as a celebrity, trying to deal with his past, just as moving as his suffering under the Khmer Rouge.
Is the review positive or negative?
