Specificatii
Award-winning journalist Elizabeth Becker started covering Cambodia
in 1973 for The Washington Post, when the country was perceived as
little more than a footnote to the Vietnam War. Then, with the rise
of the Khmer Rouge in 1975 came the closing of the border and a
systematic reorganization of Cambodian society. Everyone was sent
from the towns and cities to the countryside, where they were
forced to labor endlessly in the fields. The intelligentsia were
brutally exterminated, and torture, terror, and death became
routine. Ultimately, almost two million people--nearly a quarter of
the population--were killed in what was one of this century's worst
crimes against humanity.When the War Was Over is Elizabeth Becker's
masterful account of the Cambodian nightmare. Encompassing the era
of French colonialism and the revival of Cambodian nationalism;
1950s Paris, where Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot received his
political education; the killing fields of Cambodia; government
chambers in Washington, Paris, Moscow, Beijing, Hanoi, and Phnom
Penh; and the death of Pol Pot in 1998; this is a book of epic
vision and staggering power. Merging original historical research
with the many voices of those who lived through the times and
exclusive interviews with every Cambodian leader of the past
quarter century, When the War Was Over illuminates the darkness of
Cambodia with the intensity of a bolt of lightning.
