Summary
Separated from his family when Arab militia destroy his village, Valentino Achak Deng joins thousands of other "Lost Boys," beset by starvation, thirst and man-eating lions on their march to squalid refugee camps in Ethiopia and Kenya, where he pieces together a new life and eventually reaches America, but finds his quest for safety, community and fulfillment in many ways even more difficult there than in the camps
