Kaing Guek Eav was an ordinary man growing up in Cambodia in the
mid-twentieth century. But then, adopting the alias "Duch," he
joined the Khmer Rouge and took charge of S-21, the infamous secret
security center where in less than four years at least 14,000
"enemies" were interrogated, tortured, and executed. After the
government's collapse, Duch fled to the Cambodian frontier, where
he lived in anonymity until he was finally unmasked and sentenced
to life in prison for his crimes. With remarkable and chilling
precision, Duch describes firsthand the Khmer Rouge movement and
his own role in the paranoid irrationality of the regime. An
introduction and epilogue delve unflinchingly into Duch's character
and motivations, our common humanity, and the sometimes
uncomfortable implications of global justice.
