Kim’s Heartfelt Probe of North Korea

Pop American educators may be stirred by more than the Harry Potter ‘crisis’ near the climax …
…very well written – Ms. Kim seems a “natural” at conveying very unnatural situations and psyches. Not a fan of the dictatorship nor her “employer’s” mission but she brings out the human qualities hiding in each.

She’s quite an “emotional writer” who conveys emotion accurately without emotional distortion.
I am so impressed! Continue reading
