First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers by Loung Ung

abbie_'s review against another edition

dark emotional informative sad medium-paced

4.0

Heartbreaking portrayal of the brutality of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, as seen through the eyes of a child. It’s occasionally repetitive given the author was a child at the time, so some of her memories likely lack the depth those an adult might have, but seeing the violence through the eyes of such a young girl also serves to amplify. Honestly devastating
