Description[]
Cambodia. War-torn, beautiful, shattered by revolution. This is the story of one man's determination to tell the truth whatever the cost, and of another man's indomitable will to survive. Both would never forget what they saw, what they felt, what they experienced in THE KILLING FIELDS. "In the water wells the bodies were like soup in broth and you could always tell the killing grounds because the grass grew taller and greener where the bodies were buried." "I see in his eyes what must also be in mine - a certainty that we are to be executed." "THE DEATH AND LIFE OF DITH PRAN". The New York Times Magazine, 20 January 1980, by Sydney H. Schanberg
