The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of The Orphan Master's Son:

The official biography of Commander Ga Chol Chun, North Korea's national hero.

"A day is just a match you strike after the ten thousand matches before it have gone out."

Do despotic societies destroy education and progress?

How effective is propaganda?

My heart hurts for the citizens of North Korea.

A dictatorship is an ugly form of government.

I vote no on the shark fin soup.
