New York Times' diplomatic correspondent Cooper writes of her priveleged childhood in Liberia, filled with warm and fuzzy memories of family, friends and community. Her world turned upside down in 1980 when a bloody coup threatened and attacked her family, forcing it to scatter for survival. As she travelled the world as a journalist, Iraq included, her desire for closure brought her back to Liberia.
