内容提要:
|
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 Backer's masterful account of the Cambodian nightmare. |
