From The Killing Fields to Heaven’s Gate by Karen Anderson
This story is a memoir about the author and her family’s harrowing escape from Cambodia’s Killing Fields to America. The journey was fraught with physical dangers, and political intrigues.
Physical dangers included traveling at night through Cambodia’s dark jungle with many poisonous snakes, green-lantern-eyed tigers, giant spiders, land mines, mass graves, and U.S fighter jets’ bombing. The family undertook this journey to escape the persecution and genocide.
History tends to repeat itself. It is a forewarning of what could be in the coming days.
