Yoora, a young girl from North Korea, has dreams of lights of foreign cities while she manages to survive in a rural northern village. Everything is all right until she falls in love with someone who is far removed from her social class. This book shows how the human spirit never wants to really die if it has a glimmer of hope and especially when it's supported by unconditional love. This is an extraordinary book with deep messages. I picked up this book and couldn't stop reading. I enjoyed it very much.
Who would enjoy this? People interested in survival stories, or Asian culture and people's lives in North Korea.
