Ingrid Betancourt's story is astounding. In 2002, she was taken captive by the Colombian guerrilla group the FARC and held in the dense Amazon jungle as a political hostage for six long years. Every page of this book brings you deeper into the jungle, so much so that every time I looked up from reading I had to remind myself I was not trapped in the Amazon, I was not held captive... Her eloquence brings the deprivation, the hostility, the fear, the squabbling, and the suffocation of the jungle to life. She is at times precise, at times poetic, but never maudlin or over-dramatic. The story speaks for itself, and she allows the events to unfold with natural grace. She is often self-critical when describing the arguments and tensions that arose between the hostages, who spent months and years in forced proximity. Eventually Ms. Betancourt was isolated from the other hostages, and one can only imagine the psychological torture of being chained, being denied permission to speak or even wave to the other prisoners, some of whom had become close friends. This is not a political account, nor is it a settling of scores, it is simply a story of survival under the worst possible circumstances. I cannot imagine feeling anything but awe for this woman.
