Samenvatting
This family story begins in the colonial days of Myanmar (then called Burma), and its an important historical account that sheds light on the countrys people, history, and place in the world. Continuing the account she began in A Journey in Time, Wai Wai Myaing picks up with her familys return to Myanmars capital city of Yangon after allied forces reoccupied the country in the aftermath of World War II. They discovered their family home had been torched to the ground, but they bravely put themselves to the task of rebuilding their lives and celebrated as the country regained its independence January 4, 1948. The familys fortunes, however, were subject to the winds of political change, which bent and shaped their lives. Independence brought with it factions that fought for powerand not all of them had the peoples best interests at heart. Filled with pictures and history that must not be forgotten, this memoir is one story of one family, whichlike so many others in Myanmarplaces great value on education, traditions, and sustaining a peaceful life with integrity, generosity, and a strong faith in the teachings of the Buddha.
