Vaddey Ratner weaves an extraordinary book with In the Shadow of the Banyan. It is beautiful and haunting.

A literary work of poetic, lyrical beauty, this novel is based on the real experiences of the writer as a child living through the time of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the writing, the author's use of poetic words and descriptions to tell this story of survival, loss, and emotion.
