Some of the pictures are fascinating, but it tempers it a little bit when you think that the photo ops were no doubt heavily censored.

This photography book has the perfect blend of text and photos to illustrate the current situation in North Korea. The two-page spreads are fantastic, filling the reader's vision to transport them to the Hermit Kingdom. The essays and captions are honest and objective.

A very quick read since most of the book is composed by photographs that portray life in North Korea and the nation’s history. Even though my knowledge on North Korea has been growing, I still managed to discover many things I didn’t know. An enjoyable read, as always. North Korean books have become my guilty pleasure. Definitely worth to have on my collection for the unique photographs, so I will buy it as soon as possible!
