圖書介紹
Adam Fifield is 11 years old and lives in Vermont when the family is joined by his Cambodain foster brother Soeuth, a boy who survived the slave-labor camps of the Khmer Rouge. Adam describes the months that followed: Soeuth's wariness and detachment; his fear of being seized in the night by his parents' ghosts; Adam's discovery of his new brother's amazing physical skills, such as his ability to catch fish with his bare hands; and Soeuth's eventual emergence from years of darkness. As Soeuth gradually adjusts to rural middle-class America, a world fantastically different from teh horrors of his homeland, a bond is formed with his new brothers that will enduringly affect them all. About the Author: Adam Fifield is a native of Vermont and a graduate of Bates College and Columbia University. He is a regular contributor to the Village Voice and lives in Brookly, NY.
