Paj Nyiag was not the"son" her abusive and unloving father had wanted. Her ailing mother was an additional burden which gave her father the "excuse" to marry a second wife, then divorce her mother and abandon both of them. Sorrow and the emotional weight of abandonment take their toll when her mother dies. Now Paj Nyiag is at the mercy of her uncaring aunt and uncle. With tears and a broken heart, she asks why God would unleash such a cruel fate upon her. A powerful, moving, and inspiring love story.
