One starless night Janie's childhood was swept away by the terrors
of the Khmer Rouge. Exiled from Phnom Penh, Janie and her family
were forced to live out in the open: cold, hungry and under
constant surveillance. Caught up in a political storm which brought
starvation to millions, tore families apart and changed the world
forever, Janie lost everyone she loved. Now, three decades later,
Janie's life in Montreal is unravelling. Weaving together the
threads of Janie's life, Dogs at the Perimeter evokes
totalitarianism through the eyes of a little girl, and draws a
remarkable map of the mind's battle with memory, loss and the
horrors of war.
