sometimes i got furious,how the Kings' end up peacefully?they were true tyrants in such a modern century. May the King III face the bloody overturning oncoming future!
集中营,古拉格。家境优越的逃离者,很难复制。不过是很早逃出来的人了。很幸运。
一气读完。狠是传奇。可谓艰苦卓绝,波澜壮阔。放下内容不谈,回忆录写成这样已然不易,何况作者九岁起呆过十年集中营呢。
處處都是共和國的影子。
第二本关于朝鲜政权的英文书,此书读罢基本打消你对金三胖政权的任何幻想。trust me,it provokes hatred and despair.恨得要杀人!
人神共愤。
怎么说呢 跟之前看过的古拉格一类的回忆录比起来显得比较单薄 Nothing to Envy要好很多
One thing I liked about this book is the author didn't dwell on individual tragedies or emotions too much as other NK books (not to say those are bad). Instead he offered observations and introductions of the country, a bigger picture and context.
汇集了诸多我感兴趣的元素。久违的一气呵成。kindle电子书。
