This is a story that needs to be read - now that it has been told. It is the story of a man, born in one of North Korea's prison camps. He was trained snitch on family and colleagues, starved near to death, worked near to death, and escaped with more than a little good luck. 
 These camps have been around for over 50 years and the world seems to turn a blind eye to the atrocities that are occurring today. This book will make you angry at how this type of behavior exists. And sad about the plight of the entire North Korean people, especially those in these camps.
