Parts OK. In the usual learned style of interspersing personal history into a story it felt more distracting than helpful. The use of lover describing her somewhat disinterested BF added nothing to the story. Her family's history also added nothing. However, the story about the school and students was interesting when the author's endless weeping moments were not revealed. I mean geez, she was only there a few months!

Very poignant and at times very humorous.. Thanks for a rare and informed view inside a country stuck in a century long forgotten. I did find it interesting they allow western movies to be shown, something I would think they would frown upon. It was a book I could not stop reading, thanks for sharing your journey with us.

An amazing read. I read this shortly after reading 1984 by George Orwell. And, I am just stunned/fascinated that a place like that can still exist in the world today. Suki Kim has given us an extremely rare glimpse inside this dark and backwards country known as the DPRK.

Without You There Is No Us. This book presents a rare and fascinating perspective on North Korea. Suki Kim's writing is masterful and she literally makes you feel that you're there with her experiencing every moment as a teacher and resident at PUST.

Loved it!. I read the whole book within days and loved it! Great read!

Heart Rendering. The extreme right and left of this Country could learn much about where we could be headed if we continue down our present path of "us vs them" and not begin to build our country as a team. Ms. Kim's book is extremely frightening and, sadly, shows how inhumane humans can make one another by teaching hatred and only advancing one's own objectives.

Fantastic. Really fantastic book. I've always been fascinated by North Korea and how the government controls its citizens. Kim does a superb job of putting the daily life of these students into words, and it offers a rare glimpse of what's in the mind of North Korean citizens. You also get the true sense of dread she must have felt in the moments she knew she was being spied on or watched carefully. Definitely a recommended read for anyone curious about the DPRK.

Complex, multi-layered. I read the entire book in 2 days. I could not put it down. The book evokes numerous emotions and presents philosophical challenges from a variety of angles. It leaves a lasting impression on the reader and demands to be discussed, debated, and pondered. Thank you to the author for having the courage to live the experience and share it with others.

Heartbreaking.. The light that Suki Kim shines on the people of North Korea, those that are oppressed and those who do the oppressing, should be a wake-up call for people who view Kim Jong-un as just a crazy guy with a bad haircut. Thankfully there a few brave souls willing to risk everything to show the world the truth.The most heartbreaking part of the book is that we may never know what became of the students so lovingly introduced to us through this book.
