Requests:  0 Summary:  "An incredible memoir of North Korea by a woman who defied the government to keep her family alive. Born in 1970s North Korea, Lucia Jang grew up in a typical household--her parents worked in the factories and the family scraped by on rationed rice and a small garden. Nightly, she bowed to her photo of Kim Il-Sung. But it was the beginning of a chaotic period with a decade-long famine resulting in more than a million deaths. In this harsh time, Jang married an abusive man who sold their baby. She left him and went home to help her family by illegally crossing the river to China to trade goods. She was caught and imprisoned twice. After giving birth to a second child, which the government ordered to be killed, she escaped with him, fleeing under gunfire across the Chinese border. This stunning demonstration of love and courage reflects the range of experiences many North Korean women have endured--loss of a child, starvation, imprisonment, and trafficking"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Biography B Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Biography B Jang BIOGRAPHY Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked out 05/05/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Biography B Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Biography 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.93043 Jang Ja   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
