Nearly 27 years after Majok Marier began his
odyssey at age 7 in 1987, the 34-year-old Atlanta resident tells his story as one of the "Lost
Boys of Sudan," a walk of nearly 1,000 miles to find safety and freedom.
His memoir, "Seed of South Sudan: Memoir of a 'Lost Boy' Refugee,"
co-authored with former UPI reporter and author Estelle Ford-Williamson, is one
of the most detailed books on the Lost Boys to be published since South Sudan
became the world's newest nation in 2011. The authors will read and sign at 7 p.m., July
10 at Bound to be Read Books in East
Atlanta.
