 In 2007\, the thirteen-year-old malnourished Park and her mother fled to C
 hina from North Korea. Park skillfully details the total mind control\, fe
 ar and starvation which constitute the nightmarish daily life under North 
 Korea's Kim dynasty. Park and her mother were also searching for her older
  sister\, who escaped the country just a few days earlier. Park's narrativ
 e chronicles the downfall of her relatively prosperous family following he
 r father's arrest and imprisonment for trading on the black market. Soon a
 fter\, the family began its descent into starvation. Once in China\, the p
 air\, thinking they had reached freedom or at least food\, instead realize
 d they were now victims of human trafficking. "We had come to a bad place\
 , maybe even worse than the one we had left." Eventually Park finds her wa
 y across Mongolia to South Korea. Following a painful period of adjustment
  to a new life \, Park finds her footing. She gets her GED\, she attends u
 niversity\, and even becomes a television celebrity on a talk and talent s
 how featuring North Korean defectors. Now a leading human rights advocate\
 , Park's remarkable and inspiring story shines a light on a country whose 
 inhabitants live in misery beyond comprehension. Park's important memoir s
 howcases the strength of the human spirit and one young woman's incredible
  determination to never be hungry again.</p>\n<p style="text-align: justif
