Extra informatie Theary Seng was a toddler when they killed her father. In prison shortly after, she fell asleep in her mother's arms and woke to find her gone. "Daughter of the Killing Fields" tells how Seng spent her early years being passed from one set of relatives to another, amid a backdrop of soldiers, landmines, inadequate refugee camps and always death. 'Life', she found, 'is just a breath'. Often separated and fearing each other dead for months at a time, she tells the nail-biting story of how she, her aunts and uncles survived. Leaving Cambodia aged six to start a new life in the West, this powerful memoir begins and ends 23 years later as she finds a way to confront the man she holds 'accountable for the death of my parents, for the blood of 1.7 million others'.
