Produktbeschreibung

My Summer Vacation on the Cambodian Border is a memoir of the unlikely and extraordinary boyhood year of Desmond Cormier who lived in Saigon with his family during the escalation of the Vietnam war. From exotic excursions through the streets and markets of Old Saigon, to the dangerous and thrilling summer visits to the provinces along the Cambodian border, Cormier recalls this most memorable year of his life with straightforward clarity and delicately details the unfolding loss of a boyhood innocence, and its unusually rapid transitions towards adulthood, accelerated by the many life changing events, both in the Vietnamese country, and within Cormier's family.
