With his father imprisoned in the A30 reeducation camp, Nam must take on responsibilities beyond his years, caring for his blind grandmother and younger sibling while enduring a life marked by hardship and uncertainty. At school, Nam finds comfort in his friendship with Ph�c. However, tragedy soon upends Ph�c's life when his mother, after a prolonged illness, takes her own life. His father's remarriage only deepens his suffering, as Ph�c is neglected and emotionally abandoned by his stepmother, leaving him feeling alone and displaced. United by grief and a longing for something beyond their painful realities, Nam and Ph�c make a bold choice: to run away and travel north in search of Nam's imprisoned father. Their journey is filled with danger, as they confront hunger, fear, and the ever-present threat of authority. Along the way, they encounter both harshness and unexpected kindness, forcing them to grow up far too quickly. What begins as an escape becomes a deeper journey toward identity, belonging, and hope. Through Nam's perspective, the novel explores resilience, friendship, loss, and the enduring human desire for freedom and dignity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lulu.com","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47883754635415,"sku":"9781105452109","price":1480.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781105452109.webp?v=1781103800","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/beneath-the-red-sky-a-childhood-after-the-fall-9781105452109","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
