Overview

This book is about the struggle that Mayak Deng Aruei went through during the Sudan's two decades civil war. The author left his home village in 1991 when the rebelling SPLA's zones commanded by Dr. Riek Machar, Dr. Lam Akol & Gordon Koang raided the Dinkaland, taking cattle, abducting children and women. At some points, Aruei got separated from parents and siblings. In mid-May 1992, Aruei was resettled in Amme displaced Camp in Eastern Equatoria with his family. More than a year later, Amme displaced Camp was jointly attacked by Sudan's Government militias and Uganda's Rebels, the LRA. In 1994, the Author joined the Palataka's Red Army in Omeri. Shortly thereafter, Aruei was conscripted into Military training in Labone at the age of Fourteen and became fully trained as SPLA's child soldier. The Author left Labone Military Camp for Natinga Face Foundation and later to Kakuma Refugee Camp in northern Kenya. After seven years in Kakuma Refugee Camp, the author was granted admission into the United States of America as Lost Boy of Sudan.
