ohlhauc's review against another edition
The story is very important as we need to understand more about the situations and social forces/governments that lead to such oppression and violence against human dignity. However, there wasn't much beyond a straightforward chronicle of events. I would have liked to see more commentary and extrapolation of the ideas beyond the author's experience. The writing was also fine; nothing stood out, either bad or good.
The topic was important but the execution was just okay. I'd recommend checking out other memoirs or books on the topic of North Koreans escaping their country if you want a broader or deeper understanding of the topics.
