Very biased towards Western thought. Didn’t feel balanced in its portrayal of the DPRK so I had difficulty engaging with the material fully.

Mało konkretne, przesłodzone i nudne jak nie wiem.

It was okay, sometimes it felt like the just author's opinion, with not very solid facts to back it up. And some parts we're quite dull.

mam wrażenie jakby autorzy próbowali tą książka przekazać że, zawsze można dać łapówkę, która wszystko załatwi więc nie jest tam aż tak źle. no nie zgodzę się z tym.

I really liked this book, it was really fascinating to learn about North Korea and its people. I like that the authors interviewed a variety of North Koreans (defectors, diplomats, etc.) to get an ideal sense of the place and even when they felt their sources weren't reliable they would often footnote and mention that.
