Book Synopsis
Offers new ways to think about North Korea and how truth emerges over decades from within a dominant discourse. It explores four discrete yet mutually related domains of discourse: the literary purge of the 1950s-1960s; state-initiated linguistic reforms of the 1960s-1980s; stories from a people's chronicle; and the memoirs of the Great Leader.
