"North Korea is an open-air prison from which there is no escape. Only a handful of men and women have succeeded. Jihyun Park is one of these rare survivors. Twice she left the land of the 'socialist miracle' to flee famine and dictatorship. The first time she ran, she was forced to abandon her father on his deathbed-crossing the border under a hail of bullets. In China she was sold to a farmer, with whom she had a son, before being denounced and forcibly returned to North Korea. Six months later guardsabandoned her, injured, outside a prison camp. She recovered and returned to China to seek her son, now six, before attempting to navigate the long, hard road through the Gobi Desert and into Mongolia. Clear-eyed and resolute, Jihyun's extraordinary storyreveals a Korea far removed from the talk of nuclear weapons and economic sanctions"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Park, Jihyun, 1968-; Defectors; Escapes;
