Red Chimeras: Genocide in the Name of Power (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

I wasn't born in Cambodia. I never spoke Khmer. I did not endure the horror that fell upon millions in that land. But one day, I read the name Pol Pot and behind that name, an entire world of pain, fear, and silence revealed itself. Since that moment, I could not look away.

This book is not merely a historical study. It is an attempt to speak on behalf of those whose voices were drowned in canals, buried in mass graves, lost in dusty documents. This is a cry of memory. This is a duty.

I worked on this book long and hard. I read transcripts, studied photographs, listened to the stories of survivors. Every fragment, every number, every name is not just a statistic, but a life. Behind every paragraph someone's lost mother. Someone's sister. Someone's son. I did not allow myself to write quickly. Because you cannot write quickly about people who were killed slowly.

During the process, I came to understand: genocide is not just a crime. It is a perverted philosophy that turns an idea into a weapon, a word into a sentence, a child into an executioner. That is why this book does not limit itself to facts. It contains chapters about women, about children, about artists about those who resisted not with rifles, but with songs, prayers, and silence.

I believe that history must not only be written it must be felt. Only then does it become ours. Not foreign, not distant, not "someone else's." But ours human.

I thank everyone who inspired and supported me along this path. I thank the survivors who found the strength to speak. I thank every reader who opened this book not for information but for truth.

If even one person, after reading this, refuses to allow hatred into their heart, if even one does not turn away from another's pain then I did not write in vain.

Let memory live. And may the world never be silent again.

With respect,
Bakhtiyor Aslonov
