Listen to a sample of Kathy reading from The Beloved Daughter.
The Beloved Daughter
Synopsis: In a small North Korean village, a young girl struggles to survive. It is her father's faith, not the famine of North Hamyong Province, that most threatens Chung-Cha's well-being. The Beloved Daughter follows Chung-Cha into one of the most notorious prison camps the contemporary free world has known. Her crime? Being the daughter of a Christian.This book sounded like it would be something that might pique my interest, so I thought I would at least read it and see what I thought. I will say that this book was nothing like what I had expected.
Ms. Terry paints such a vivid picture of her characters and the pain that they endured. I've never read a story with such descriptions that truly made me feel like I was standing there inside the room as each story was played out.
Is this a "guy's" book? I would say that if you have but one to read this entire year, this book should be it. This book embodies great intrigue and suspense, this is one that should not be missed.
