Lulu in the Sky by Loung Ung
Concluding the trilogy that started with the bestselling memoir First They Killed My Father, Loung Ung describes her college experience and her first steps into adulthood, revealing her struggle to reconcile with her past while moving forward towards happiness. After the violence of the Khmer Rouge and the difficult assimilation experience of a refugee, Loung's daily struggle to keep darkness, anger, and depression at bay will finally find two unexpected allies: the empowering call of activism, and the redemptive power of love. Lulu in the Sky is the story of Loung's journey to a Cambodian village to reconnect with her mother's spirit; to a vocation that will literally allow her to heal the landscape of her birth; and to the transformative influence of a supportive marriage to a loving man.Loung Ung was the National Spokesman for the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation's Campaign for a Landmine-Free World, which was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for co-founding the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. Ung gives a lot of talks, is frequently in the media, and has returned to Cambodia more than thirty times. She's also the author of LuLu in the Sky and Lucky Child: A Daughter of Cambodia Reunites with the Sister She Left Behind.
