Book excerpt: From 1983 to 2005, more than two million Sudanese lives were lost in southern Sudan in a quest for civil rights and independence. Author Agok Manyang was one of the lucky ones; he lived and eventually made his way to the United States. In The Phoenix of South Sudan he narrates his story of flight and survival. In 1987, when Manyang was just ten years old, war came to his small village of Bor, and for the next fourteen years, he and other children flirted with death, with fear as a constant companion. This memoir recalls the details of the dangers he faced fleeing through jungles, eating leaves, running from gunfire, sleeping in the open, fearing wild animals and armies, battling mosquitoes and the elements, drinking contaminated water, and coping with hunger, thirst, and disease. While scavenging for food and shelter in the jungles of Africa, Manyang held tightly to the hope of one day reuniting with family and friends, and it was that hope that kept him alive. Despite the odds, he survived and this is his story.
