In 1971, on a routine outing through the Cambodian countryside, the
young French scholar Francois Bizot was captured by the Khmer
Rouge. Accused of being an agent of American imperialism, he was
chained and imprisoned. His captor, Douch, later responsible for
tens of thousands of deaths, interviewed him at length; after three
months of torturous deliberation, during which his every word was
weighed and his life hung in the balance, he was released. No other
Western prisoner survived. our years later, the Khmer Rouge entered
Phnom Penh. Francois Bizot became the official intermediary between
the ruthless conqueror and the terrified refugees behind the gate
of the French embassy- a ringside seat to one of history's most
appalling genocides.
