you never really want to rate a book like this poorly. i learned a lot about the myanmar war and it was an extremely harrowing account of the experience, which i know continues today.
however. the book is called miss burma and 93% of it is about this fuckin sad sack benny. every now and again we are treated to a couple paragraphs about either the incredibly strong khin or the beginnings of what appear to be a fascinating louisa. but the book is called miss burma and it ends right as she comes into her own as a person. i would have loved to learn about her.
