"Willa Schneberg takes the reader on an extraordinary journey-from the Ramayana and Angkor Wat to the terrors of Pol Pot-encountering along the way Buddhist paci-fism and the divine warrior, AndrA(c) Malraux and Tricky Dick and Kent State, among a host of characters. Her Cambodia is a world and she's gotten deep within its skin. This is rich rewarding poetry, a compassionate, visionary response to a very real world."-Sam Hamill "Willa Schneberg is a poet who boldly faces evil and has the courage to express her reactions in art and testimony. The wisdom underpinning her poems is fully earned. . . . Her elegy for Pol Pot catches the banality of evil as few writers have attempted."-David Ray, author of The Death of Sardanapalus and Other Poems of the Iraq Wars This moving, rich cycle of linked poems journeys from Cambodia's ancient mythic times to the killing fields and to the UN presence during Cambodia's first free elections. It bears witness to the plight of the Cambodian people and to all who have endured holocausts. The reader viscerally experiences the sweet-sour tastes of both jungle fruits and blackened, dead potato patches; the sights and sounds of the bombed Cambodian countryside and its fecund cities; as well as the humanity of others and ourselves. Storytelling in Cambodia includes an introduction by the celebrated Cambodian poet U Sam Oeur (author of Sacred Vows) and his translator Ken McCullough, who have worked together previously on Oeur's memoir Crossing Three Wildernesses (Coffee House Press).
