Red Undertow

By Kieng Sieu Lim

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.
