A River in Darkness: One Man's Escape from North Korea
by Masaji Ishikawa
I've read several books about escaping from North Korea and this one was very interesting.
It was very informative of what it was like to live there and the horrors they endured. Many of the books I have read on this topic have been more about the escape which is also terrifying. The author takes you through his life in North Korea from when he moved there from Japan as a young boy with his family to the point he feels he can't endure it anymore and finally escapes.
A terrifying tale about hardship, endurance and the will to live.
