If you'd like to learn more about how the American bombing of Cambodia helped bring Pol Pot to power in a highly entertaining way, I'd recommend this section from Spalding Gray's monolog in Swimming to Cambodia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieMCKk_7Hs8&t=1153
…statues were of course destroyed. It certainly seem to be a common thread in communist revolutions: all that has gone before must be destroyed. Now I am going to see if I cannot find Spalding Gray's Swimming to Cambodia.
…Spanish countryside after reading "The Sun Also Rises", and got lost in the countryside and drank red wine on the hills. I also visited the killing fields in Cambodia after reading "The Killing Fields" and "Swimming to Cambodia". It was fucking terrifying that this happened in my lifetime. On the other hand, I can see how stressful this is for locals, like both in Alaska and Spain who aren't asking for the influx. But at least…

If you like David Sedaris you might enjoy Spalding Gray's monologues. Swimming to Cambodia and Gray's Anatomy are my favorites.
