"The rough burlap hood had been on his head for almost two days. Shwe Aung had been a prisoner for three days. It began shortly after dark, and darkness falls quickly in the jungle. Suddenly they came upon him, hiding in the swamp, along with snakes and centipedes longer than his foot. His hands were shoved roughly behind his back and tied with rope. They struck him on the top of his head, on the bottom of his feet, over and over, until they tired. Eventually, he lost consciousness. They dragged him inside a hut and put the hood over his head. Then they left. He was just a boy, not a thug. His crime? He had run away from the army that had abducted him." Set against the background of Myanmar's rich and complex history, The Torn Truth reveals a unique and compassionate culture torn apart by the oppression of a tyrannical government. Part travelogue, part historical perspective, The Torn Truth is also the story of the triumph of the human spirit.
