Through
30 years of tortuous, strange, and profoundly soul-stirring life
experience from China to Cambodia and eventually to the United States,
the book describes a panorama of the contention of the US, the Soviet
Union, and China for power and rivalry in Indochina. The devastation
brought about by the International Communist Movement to Cambodia led to
a catastrophe that resulted in the death of 2 million people, including
several hundred thousand ethnic Chinese in this weak and small country
of Cambodia. Red Undertow presents unique descriptions of life during
war times, cruelty of the Khmer Rouge regime; lingering and abiding
affection, love and resentment within families, episodes of human
tragedies leading to parting and separation, events involoving national
tragedies and outstanding issues of history, which will bring tears to
the eyes of readers and make them learn to cherish their valuable lives
all the more.
