The Story of Three Lost Boys from Sudan
The gripping tale of three Sudanese boys who were driven from their homes by civil war and began an epic odyssey of survival, ultimately finding their way to a new life in America
“A moving, beautifully written account, by turns raw and tender.” —Los Angeles Times
A Washington Post Best Book of the Year
Between 1987 and 1989, Alepho, Benjamin, and Benson, like tens of thousands of other young boys known as the Lost Boys, took flight from the massacres of Sudan’s civil war. They set out in search of refuge with little more than the clothes on their backs and walked nearly one thousand miles, sustained only by the sheer will to live.
They Poured Fire on Us From the Sky is a deeply affecting account of that unimaginable journey. With the purity of their child’s-eye vision, the three boys recall how they endured hunger, malaria, life-threatening predators, and a war that threatened to overwhelm them. Now updated with a new afterword, They Poured Fire on Us From the Sky is a captivating, timeless portrait of a childhood hurled into wartime and an inspiring story of survival.
