Reviews

Victor Cha, ​D.​ ​S. Song-KF Professor of Government, Georgetown University and former National Security Council director for Japan and Korea affairs:
The story of North Korean human rights abuses has been difficult to tell because so much of the problem remains shrouded by the state, with nameless and faceless victims. Fahy remedies this malady with a beautifully written and human story of human rights abuses in North Korea that takes us beyond hard-to-obtain statistics.
