Leah Petersen's Reviews > The Reluctant Communist: My Desertion, Court-Martial, and Forty-Year Imprisonment in North Korea

Fascinating read. While I was in disagreement with many of Mr. Jenkins decisions and thought processes he has offered a glimpse into a void. It made me grateful for the extensive knowledge network that lets us take in a larger view of reality. To learn of a entire countries faux reality it made me wary of the "facts" I might ignorantly want to rely on as stable and true.

While the example of propaganda in North Korea is extreme, you can't help but wonder to what extent other countries, including the US, are made into what someone else desires.
