The" New York Times "bestseller" A Long Walk to Water" begins as
two stories, told in alternating sections, about two
eleven-year-olds in Sudan, a girl in 2008 and a boy in 1985. The
girl, Nya, is fetching water from a pond that is two hours' walk
from her home: she makes two trips to the pond every day. The boy,
Salva, becomes one of the "lost boys" of Sudan, refugees who cover
the African continent on foot as they search for their families and
for a safe place to stay. Enduring every hardship from loneliness
to attack by armed rebels to contact with killer lions and
crocodiles, Salva is a survivor, and his story goes on to intersect
with Nya's in an astonishing and moving way.
