\n

After three weeks of searching in vain for a copy of The Accused, the 1973 novella I\u2019d spent the past quarter reading and translating from a blurred and grainy PDF, I had begun to think it might not be possible to find a print copy for sale in Phnom Penh today, fifty years after its initial publication. I\u2019d visited a dozen of the city\u2019s major and independent bookstores alike, and found little in the way of the literature from the 1960s and 1970s, part of a modernist movement within Cambodia\u2019s literary scene, that I\u2019d hoped to spend the summer collecting and reading. Many bookstore staff were unfamiliar with the list of authors I\u2019d jotted down back in Seattle; those who knew of them were not optimistic about the prospects of finding their works in print.<\/p>\n

It was thus with some surprise that, winding my way through the narrow aisles of the crowded upper floor of Phnom Penh\u2019s bustling Orussey Market, I turned a corner and saw, sitting on top of a stack of books just in front of me, the iconic blue-and-white cover of The Accused. The bookseller, a woman in her fifties, sat perched on a stool, a book in hand, in the middle of her stall, a small space not quite two meters square, its walls lined floor to ceiling with stacks of books; she glanced at me disinterestedly as I approached.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019re you looking for?\u201d she asked languidly, her eyes already returning to her book.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have a copy of The Accused!\u201d I replied. \u201cI\u2019ve been looking for this for weeks. None of the big bookstores have it.\u201d<\/p>\n

She looked up at me. \u201cThey don\u2019t carry this type of work,\u201d she said, closing her book and sliding down off her stool; we now had to peer at one another over the stacks of books that lined the front of her stall space. \u201cIt\u2019s from the Sangkum era, the Sihanouk years.\u201d<\/p>\n

We chatted for a few minutes about the book, a semi-autobiographical account by the author Khun Srun of his monthslong imprisonment earlier in the 1970s under the right-wing Lon Nol regime. Srun was part of the modernist literary movement that had emerged in Cambodia in the decades following independence from the French in 1953; a cohort of poets, novelists, and essayists turned to literature as they sought to confront their disillusionment with Prince Norodom Sihanouk\u2019s Sangkum Reastr Niyum, or \u2018Populist Society,\u2019 and to imagine alternative postcolonial futures for the newly independent nation-state. The work would prove to be Srun\u2019s last; shortly after its publication, he fled the city to join the revolutionary forces of the Khmer Rouge. After the Khmer Rouge came to power in 1975, Srun returned to Phnom Penh and was assigned to the regime\u2019s rail division; in December 1978, on the eve of the regime\u2019s collapse, Srun, along with his wife and three of his four children, was arrested and promptly executed in one of the regime\u2019s final purges.<\/p>\n

I was first introduced to the work by Lok Kru Yin Luoth, our Khmer instructor at the University of Washington; during the 2022 spring quarter, I worked with a section of The Accused through a translation seminar, and, through a paper for another graduate seminar, explored the ways in which the work reflects Srun\u2019s broader literary and political positioning within his particular historical moment. With funding support from UW\u2019s Southeast Asia Center, I would be spending two months in Cambodia over the summer, participating in an archives workshop hosted by UW alongside a consortium of other partners and conducting research related to my still-coalescing masters thesis, broadly concerned with the ways in which generations of Cambodian authors have turned to language and literature as a critical site of engagement through which to challenge and articulate particular visions of the Cambodian national community. The Accused was among the works I was most eager to track down, but it was not the only one.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo you have anything else by Khun Srun? The Last Residence, for instance?\u201d I asked the bookseller.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Last Residence. Hmm. I\u2019ve had it in the past, but I don\u2019t at the moment. Another seller might have it, though.\u201d<\/p>\n

She deftly extricated herself from the cramped stall, slipping through a gap in the stacks of books that I hadn\u2019t even noticed. \u201cLet\u2019s go,\u201d she said, and set off down the narrow aisle without so much as a glance back in my direction.<\/p>\n

I grabbed my bag and hurried to catch up to her. Her stall, I realized, was on the outer edges of a section of the market I hadn\u2019t known existed: several dozen stalls devoted entirely to books and school supplies. She led us through the maze of stalls, calling out to other sellers as she went, leading us towards those that might carry Srun\u2019s other works. \u201cAnything by Khun Srun?\u201d she\u2019d ask as we approached a vendor. \u201cThe Last Residence?\u201d<\/p>\n

I left that day with a bag full of books: roughly half of the works I\u2019d hoped to find over the course of the summer, and a few I hadn\u2019t. As we walked along, visiting a half-dozen other booksellers in the vicinity, I chatted with the seller I\u2019d befriended, and learned that her nephew ran the printing house that produced many of the titles in her stall; they had a larger shop, she told me, a storefront, not far away. \u201cAnything you can\u2019t find here, you\u2019ll be able to find it there,\u201d she said. \u201cWe sell works that they don\u2019t carry in those bigger bookstores.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before the summer was out, I\u2019d spent hours browsing the shelves of her nephew\u2019s store, and had returned twice more to the booksellers of Orussey Market. The city\u2019s larger bookstores, I\u2019d come to recognize, offer a wide selection of genres and titles \u2013 yet a range of other works circulated along less visible literary networks that provided an alternative to the larger stores, and yet that frequently intersected. I found titles published by Kampu Mera, the publishing house founded by author and activist So Phina, at book fairs in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. A Mekong Review article on the elusive My Bookshop Cambodia led me down a narrow alley tucked off of Norodom Boulevard; there, the owner suggested I visit the Ponleu Vichea Newspaper Stand, a robust sidewalk bookshop across from Phnom Penh\u2019s well-known Preah Sisowath High School. (The owner of Ponleu Vichea, infinitely knowledgeable on Khmer-language literature and scholarship, helped me locate a copy of Eav Koeus\u2019s 1947 Khmer Language, a seminal work in Khmer linguistics that offers crucial insights into how Cambodian authors and intellectuals, on the eve of the country\u2019s independence from France, conceived of the interconnections between language and national community: I\u2019d found old copies at the National Library, but was certain it would be impossible to find a print copy for sale elsewhere in Phnom Penh.) I began stopping by any bookshop I came across, no matter how small, never knowing quite what I\u2019d find on their shelves: a pocket-sized copy of Kuy Sarun\u2019s The Black Rose, an iconic work of modernist poetry; Trinh Vanh\u2019s What Are My Crimes?, another work recommended by Lok Kru Yin Luoth; Suon Soren\u2019s A New Sun Rises Over an Old Land, recently translated into English (although not without its critiques).<\/p>\n

Ultimately, in the months since my return from Phnom Penh in August, my thesis has coalesced around one work in particular: the Khmer Dictionary, known to many Cambodians today as the Chuon Nath Dictionary, named for the monk who played a leading role in developing and revising five successive editions of the dictionary over a period spanning more than four decades. Decisions concerning Khmer orthography and lexicography made by Nath, and articulated through the pages of the dictionary, have fueled vigorous debates among Khmer novelists, poets, intellectuals, journalists, educators, government officials, and others, debates that, I argue, may be understood as speaking to broader hopes and concerns for the future of the Cambodian nation.<\/p>\n

The vibrancy of the literary networks that traverse Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, Battambang, and other Cambodian towns and cities today makes evident the fact that such debates have continued to be taken up by new generations of Cambodians, representing a broad cross-section of society and yet each engaged and invested in a robust literary community. The iconic yellow cover of the 1967 edition of the Chuon Nath Dictionary can be seen on prominent display at virtually ever bookshop in the city, and many of the questions that Chuon Nath sought to answer \u2013 the extent to which Khmer ought to accommodate foreign loanwords; orthographic tensions between etymological and phonetic orientations \u2013 have only grown more relevant, as global capitalism and English hegemony increasingly bring Khmer into contact \u2013 and, at times, conflict \u2013 with translocal circulatory networks.<\/p>\n

In the face of such uncertainties, language and literature alike, as both medium and idiom, remain a central site of engagement through which successive generations confront the questions of their day. From the three-story bookstores that line Sihanouk Boulevard to the crowded stalls of Orussey Market, a diverse yet thriving community of Khmer-language readers and writers repeatedly turns to literature in their efforts to call forth new ways of being and belonging in the modern world.<\/p>\n
