by Helen N. Mendoza

The realization that they were losing the war and death was not far off became clear one night. During those nights of retreat, we heard someone outside crying. He was crying and calling the name ‘Otosan’. ‘Otosan’.

This war memoir is different from the many other books written before. Helen experienced the war as a young girl, impressionable and still full of hope and wonder. So hers is a story of growing up in the midst of chaos and the threat of violence. Her memory is clear: she tells her story crisply. The characters come alive, not as faceless figures but as real people with names… Hers are the memory of youth, able to see goodness even as the world around her was crumbling.
