Translation of: Corée du Nord : 9 ans pour fuir l'enfer.

"Eunsun Kim was born in 1986 in North Korea, one of the most secretive and oppressive countries in the modern world. As a child Eunsun loved her country -- despite her school field trips to public executions, daily self-criticism sessions, and the increasing gnaw of hunger as the country-wide famine escalated. Her mother decided to escape North Korea with Eunsun and her sister, not knowing that they were embarking on a journey that would take them nine long years to complete. Now Eunsun is sharing her story to give voice to the tens of millions of North Koreans still suffering in silence"--Provided by publisher.
