Two of my latest reads… 1) Cohen’s #TheNetanyahus; a satirical account of the late Harold Bloom’s encounter with @netanyahu’s father while the latter was applying for his job at @Cornell. 2) @JihyunPark7’s memoir focuses on her yrs growing up in the DPRK, & not 1 but 2 escapes 
I found @JihyunPark7’s memoir helpful in understanding just how powerful 성분 is in reality, especially when one is a descendant of somebody who fled South during the war. Also appreciated the co-author’s reflections as a South Korean, which were interspersed between chapters
A detail that piqued my interest were references to the father one of @JihyunPark7’s students who was said to have been fighting in Libya. @sukisworld “Without You, There Is No Us,” which I’m reading now, also makes note of some PUST student’s fathers being sent there for work.
