520 "In May 2018, former Monty Python stalwart and intrepid
globetrotter Michael Palin spent two weeks in the
notoriously secretive Democratic People's Republic of
Korea, a cut-off land without internet or phone signal,
where the countryside has barely moved beyond a centuries-
old peasant economy but where the cities have gleaming
skyscrapers and luxurious underground train stations. His
resulting documentary was widely acclaimed. Now he shares
his day-by-day diary of his visit, in which he describes
not only what he saw--and his fleeting views of what the
authorities didn't want him to see--but recounts the
conversations he had with the country's inhabitants, talks
candidly about his encounters with officialdom, and
records his musings about a land wholly unlike any other
he has ever visited--one that inspires fascination and
fear in equal measure. Written with Palin's trademark
warmth and wit, and illustrated with beautiful colour
photographs throughout, the journal offers a rare insight
into the North Korea behind the headlines."--|cProvided by
