General note |
At the lawless border between North Korea and China, three young lives converge in the hope of a better future.<br/><br/>Yongju is an accomplished student from a prominent but recently disgraced family; Jangmi has had to fend for herself since childhood, and now has her unborn child to protect; Danny is a Chinese-American teenager who yearns for the China of his childhood. But danger is everywhere: government informants, thieves, people smugglers, abductors and even missionaries are a threat. As the three form an adopted family in the struggle to survive, will they reach the safety and freedom that China seems to offer?<br/><br/>Inspired by the author's own experiences while working in the border area, How I Became a North Korean is a powerful story of peril and hope. |
