About the Book
"The Girl from the Jungle" tells the extraordinary life story of Zoya Phan, a young woman born in the remote jungles of Burma, to the oppressed Karen ethnic group. The Karen people have endured decades of brutal attacks from Burma's military junta, and Zoya’s family was no exception. Her mother, a guerrilla soldier, and her father, a freedom activist, fought for survival and freedom in a land ravaged by war.
Zoya spent her childhood in a bamboo hut by the Moei River, living a blissful, simple life far from the conflict. However, at the age of fourteen, her peaceful existence was shattered when the Burmese army attacked, burning their house to the ground. Forced to flee into the jungle, Zoya's life turned into a relentless struggle for survival as she joined thousands of refugees hiding from the gunfire and violence.
Her journey took her across borders to a Thai refugee camp, where she cared for her ailing mother and faced harsh conditions. A gifted student, Zoya's thirst for education and freedom eventually led her to Bangkok, and in 2004, she sought asylum in the UK, continuing her fight for justice.
Her courage and resilience brought her into the international spotlight, and soon she became the face of the oppressed Karen people, appearing on BBC and in media outlets worldwide. She shared her harrowing story, rubbing shoulders with world leaders and celebrities, and became an icon of a nation in exile.
"The Girl from the Jungle" is a deeply moving, inspiring, and gripping account of a young woman's survival, resilience, and relentless pursuit of freedom in the face of unimaginable adversity. This is a story of hope, strength, and the fight for justice, making it a must-read for anyone moved by stories of courage against all odds.
