Books by Wendy Law-Yone

At the time of Burma's military coup in 1962, the author was fifteen. A year later, her father Ed Law-Yone, daredevil proprietor of The Nation newspaper, was arrested and his newspaper shut down. Eventually, she was herself briefly imprisoned before managing to escape the country. This book tells her story.

Sometimes the hardest journey is the road home. Na Ga was always in search of a better life. Plucked from her wild life as a rural eel-catcher, Na Ga is then abandoned by her would-be rescuers in Rangoon.
