Nothing to Envy

Non Fiction
Written By Meighan

By Barbara Demick

I have had this odd obsession with North Korea for a long time. It completely fascinates me that in today's global society a place can still exist so completely cut off from the rest of the world. That almost two generations have been born, raised and many died not knowing anything other than this bizarre dictatorial regime is amazing. Given how closed off this country is it is actually hard to find books that tell of life inside. This was the best one I could find and although not the best quality writing, it did satisfy my desire to learn more about what it must be like to live in such an eerie, strange place.

Meighan

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
