Review of K.M.Kaung's novella from a reader inside Burma -



·       I have just finished reading your two short stories, non-stop, sitting in a not so comfortable chair, forgetting to stretch my back.  To be totally honest I never imagined you could write this well.
Black Rice describes another true and painful episode coming out of decades of unending armed struggle in Burma.   

All cannot be all bad all the time, is the only tiny silver lining of exceptional hope.
 
A non-active, quiet Myanmar reader.
