Biemnom Survivor - Paperback

by Chol Makuachlung (Author)

This book is not just about what happened to the author and his family in the morning in Biemnom on December 25, 1983, but also to families who were residences of Biemnom and had experienced the same thing. Many people lost their loved ones. Through the period of thirty-five years, everywhere he goes, he meets one of the survivors. In this book, there are interviews with eyewitnesses, elders, and few survivors from that attack. It talks about the messages from God, but people fail to understand the massage. Before the attack, an old lady called Nyandeng Luol from Twic Gogrial made a song as a warning to people who lived in Biemnom town; it was in Dinka language.(Ruweng dheth ki raap Kuot ate bai aci ngaar ngap chok wen Nyanawetbil, ci mangar wei ki thon jur). It covered about Sultan Kuot Kur's, the chief of Biemnom, ruling; about groups of Ngok youths in Abyei who joined the movement in 1985; a little bit about Ruweng Biemnom culture; his school; and how my American dreams became true, etc.
