A few months ago fourteen-year-old Ali Banana was apprenticed to a
whip-wielding blacksmith in his rural hometown. Now its winter
1944, the war is entering its most crucial stage and Ali is a
private in Thunder Brigade. His unit has been given orders to go
behind enemy lines and wreak havoc. But the Burmese jungle is a
mud-riven, treacherous place, riddled with Japanese snipers,
insanity and disease. Burma Boy is a horrific, vividly realised
account of the madness, the sacrifice and the dark humour of the
Second World War's most vicious battleground. It's also the moving
story of a boy trying to live long enough to become a man.
