To Swim Across the World by Frances and Ginger Park [in AsianWeek]
A remarkable, gracefully written work based on the true story of the authors’ parents’ early lives: their mother, the privileged daughter of a prominent minister in North Korea, and their father, the poor son of a rural South Korean family.
