5 stars is for well-written true story of Masaji Ishikawa.

The book talks about horrific life in North Korea during the era of Kim Il-Sung. I am choked with grief, not sure that same living conditions are still not continuing.....

Do you want to educate yourselves on the horror of North Korea and the fact that there truly is evil in the world? If so, then this book lays it out
