Girl With Seven Names: A North Korean Defector’s Story by Hyeonseo Lee (NF)

This book is an insight into life under a ruthless dictatorship – and one woman’s terrifying struggle. Growing up in North Korea, Hyeonseo Lee was one of millions trapped by a communist regime. Her home, on the border with China, gave her some exposure to the world and, as the famine of the 1990s struck, she began to question and realize that she had been brainwashed. At age seventeen, she decided to escape North Korea.
