Sample Book Insights: #1 In the 1960s, North Korea's disaster was not yet on the horizon. In economic terms, the country was neck and neck with the South, and in Pyongyang, the regime's privileged showcase, it seemed the Party's talk of triumph and promise might actually be true. #2 I had fond memories of my time at the School of the People, a grammar school in Pyongyang.
Despite their adherence to communist educational methods, almost all the teachers were attentive and patient with their pupils. #3 In North Korea, the education of the revolution's soldiers was a top priority. We were taught about the morals of communism and the history of the Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il regime. We were never asked to do anything too difficult. #4 My family was better off than most, living in a newly built neighborhood that was exceptionally quiet and verdant.
We had a refrigerator, washing machine, vacuum cleaner, and a color television set.
