Opening with the experience of Indonesian refugees who sought safety in Brazil, the narrative contrasts hopes for escape with the reality of Cold War consequences. It frames the events of 1964 in Brazil and 1965 in Indonesia as pivotal Cold War victories, reinforcing Washington’s emerging influence and the economic system that followed.","Copyright  \nCopyright © 2020 by Vincent Bevins  \nCover design by Pete Garceau  \nCover copyright © 2020 Hachette Book Group, Inc.  \nHachette Book Group supports the right to free expression and the value of copyright.

Her country, one of the largest in the world, had been pulled into the global battle between capitalism and communism, and her parents decided to flee the terrible consequences that conflict had wrought for families like hers. They set sail for Brazil, having heard from other Indonesians who had already made the journey that this place offered freedom, opportunity, andrespite from conflict. But they knew almost nothing about it. Brazil was just an idea for them, and it was very far away.
