The Road of Lost Innocence

The Story of a Cambodian Heroine (Random House Reader's Circle)

Somaly Mam

A powerful memoir of tragedy and hope by a woman named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people in the world. Somaly Mam recounts her experiences as a young girl who was sold into sexual slavery by her own grandfather, enduring unspeakable acts of brutality for a decade until she escaped. Unable to forget the girls she left behind, Mam became a fierce leader in the fight against human trafficking, rescuing sex workers and leading them into new, better lives. Written in exquisite, unflinching prose, this memoir is a testament to the courage and strength of an extraordinary woman and the power of an individual to bring about change.

I couldn’t sleep after reading this book. I felt a duty to read it, however, and others like it, to know without forgetting, that for countries devastated by war, often wars “we” cause, or extend by carpet bombing or laying of land mines, the suffering, usually for the most vulnerable, never ends.      fuente
