“There was no prayer in the forest, but we had a lot of rice,” Moun had told me. “Now, we pray but there’s no rice!” he said, breaking into a big laugh.”
Corinne Purtill, Ghosts in the Forest

“The past is fine and all, but what is really important is the world as it is, right now.”
Corinne Purtill, Ghosts in the Forest

“Cambodians resent outsiders’ implications that they are a nation of shell-shocked survivors, but in 2004 news from police stations around the country made it impossible not to notice how many seemingly pedestrian conflicts escalated into stunning violence: the farmer who beheaded his neighbor with a machete in a dispute over a fence; the disgruntled relative who stormed away from an argument at a wedding and returned to douse the guests with battery acid.”
Corinne Purtill, Ghosts in the Forest
