Wow!
Wow! This story is horrific and heartbreaking and amazing! I'm so astonished at the evil in this world and the resilience of humans to overcome it. I've been following Yeonmi Park on her podcast tour this fall, so I wanted to know her full story with all the details. This memoir is well worth your time, and Yeonmi Park is inspiring. Read this book!

An astonishing young women, her story brought me to tears many times. Not just from the saddest of the situation but from the pure inspiration she is as well.
