A tough but wonderful journey
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 7 years ago
This book touch me hard at many states, especially when Salva flashbacks during his long walking journey. It's dark, horrid and unimaginable! The more I read the luckier I feel to be born and raised in The United States, a safe place, a wealthy country and the constitutions which protect my right as a citizen.
The book is quite short and easy to read. The little girl Nya who lives in Nuer on 2008 meet Salva, the guy was pushed away by war from his family and country. They seemed irrelevant but relevant, it's kinda like the circle of life.
