Escape from Camp Evil is the heart-wrenching account of a thirteen-year-old boy who endured torture and privation at the hands of a cruel and pernicious thug-state. Indeed, the similar ages of the protagonists and the miseries they endured compel the consideration of parallels with Anne Frank’s diary.
The work tells the harrowing story of a boy whose life came apart at the same time that his family disintegrated under the unnatural pressures imposed by Romania’s communist police state. Abandoned by his parents and caught up in the maw of that same police state, Adrian survived when others would have perished. To be sure, the story of his determination to overcome the manifold cruelties of his antagonists is one of tenacity and courage; his resolute spirit is a testament to man’s ability to overcome apparently impossible hardships.
The reader’s reward for absorbing so much darkness and misery is the uplifting story of Adrian’s escape to the West and the success he made for himself there. Escape from Camp Evil stands out as a very human tale of triumph in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
