The Sorcerer of Pyongyang: A Novel
by Marcel Theroux
The Sorcerer of Pyongyang was on my list for a while and I couldn't wait to dive in. The story showed great promise at first, but it quickly turned into an aloof book report instead of exploring all the possibilities within Jun-su's journey. Many of the pivot points were too cleverly contrived for the weight of the events, and the ending...well, it kinda cheaped out. At least it was a fast read, and it renewed my interest in learning more about North Korean society and culture.
