Description
In December 1950, war looms over North Korea. For Sora and her family, life is governed by strict rules: no travel without permission, no criticism of the government, and constant surveillance. But as war breaks out between North and South Korea, Sora's family sees an opportunity to escape their mountain village and make a perilous journey to safety. With the plan to walk hundreds of miles to Busan, they must navigate treacherous terrain, avoid danger at every turn, and rely on each other for survival. When an incendiary bombing changes everything, Sora and her little brother Young are forced to embark on their journey alone. This harrowing novel offers a glimpse into a vanished time and a closed nation, shedding light on the human cost of war and the resilience of those who survive it.
