Firsthand observations of the peculiarities of everyday life in North Korea fill the pages of this informative graphic travelogue.
Author Guy Delisle, who spent two months in the country working as an animator, deftly captures life in this "hermit country" with unembellished black-and-white drawings while offering insightful digressions into the country’s history. Revealing anecdotes describe his ever-present guide and translator, the omnipresent statues and portraits of dictators, and the barrage of propaganda that he encounters.
