A River in Darkness: One Man's Escape from North Korea by Masaji Ishikawa

4.25

dark emotional sad tense medium-paced

---

Oh my God what a heartbreaking novel. Definitely not for the feint of heart. It's terrible to think and to know that there are people who have lived and will continue to live like this - if this is what you want to call living.

If you can, give this book a read.
