"As a twelve-year-old boy growing up in South Vietnam, Th???o has heard of other boys disappearing from time to time, smuggled out of the country so they wouldn't have to be conscripted into the Communist army. But Th???o is too young to worry about any of that. He spends his afternoons cricket fighting and playing soccer with his friends.
