Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. teen nonfiction (North Korea). Smoothly written biography that reads like a teen dystopian novel (but without the love triangle or epic good/evil battles). Because of this, you sometimes feel that the pace is a bit slow for the first 1/2 of the story, but you can't fault it for that because he's telling a true story, truthfully, and the things he lives through are pretty terrible. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

HTML:Written for a young audience, this intense memoir explores the harsh realities of life on the streets in contemporary North Korea. Every Falling Star is the memoir of Sungju Lee, who at the age of twelve was forced to live on the streets of North Korea and fend for himself. To survive, Sungju creates a gang and lives by thieving, fighting, begging, and stealing rides on cargo trains. Sungju richly recreates his scabrous story, depicting what it was like for a boy alone to create a new family with his gang, "his brothers," to daily be hungry and to fear arrest, imprisonment, and even execution. This riveting memoir allows young readers to learn about other cultures where freedoms they take for granted do not exist. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
