「事實證明，搬到北韓是我這輩子做過最大膽的舉動。獻給我認識以及素未謀面的北韓人。我永遠不會忘記你們。」想像一下，你進入一個國度，卻連基本的真相都模糊不清，有時甚至不能相信自己的眼睛或感覺，甚而連真實與想像間的界線，都不明朗……* 郭雅慧 主播 (曾數度實地前往朝鮮探訪，是國內知名北韓通)* 謝哲青 作家、知名節目主持人 (知名文史學者)連袂推薦 (排名不分先後)// 北韓人的生活，意外地普通。//夏天時小孩會套著游泳圈到海邊游泳，情侶們在樹下拍攝照片，看到外國人會很想跟他接近練習英文，女性們忙碌於工作、支撐著家庭，最近老師跟家長們煩惱於學生太愛玩手機……這些形容會讓你聯想到「北韓」嗎？應該不至於。我們對這個國家的想像很貧瘠，而這個國家的政治形象，常常讓我們忘記在那裡生活的人是實際活著的；在成為北韓人之前，他們是「普通人」。本書由英國外交官夫人親筆寫作、拍攝，是外國人對世上最神秘國家、難以進入窺探的朝鮮，長達兩年的珍貴實地記錄。透過作者的圖文真實記錄，希冀能打破外界對北韓居民的刻板印象。* 收錄近200張照片！* 亞馬遜暢銷冠軍！* 日本讀賣新聞專題採訪！美林珠曾在朝鮮生活兩年，這個國家長期以來被視為地球上最封閉的社會。身為平壤為數不多的外籍人士之一，她擁有能體驗這國家的難得自由，而不會受到太多來自朝鮮政府的限制。就像坐在前排座位一樣，她親眼見證了許多歷史頭條，好比北韓與美國空前的軍事緊張局勢，以及之後在新加坡舉辦的川金會。然而，真正揭露北韓生活的，是朝鮮社會每天加諸給國民的控制與壓抑，以及美林珠與當地人產生的連結。她因此再也不是兩年前下了飛機、踏上朝鮮空蕩停機坪時那個緊張不安的女子。這本書是她拍攝的北韓相片集，內容精采萬分，見證了北韓不為人知的人性面。// 我們對一個地方能真正瞭解到什麼程度？//一般人是透過相信自己眼前所見，來試著瞭解一個國家及其人民。我們參考自己的經驗、我們能感覺到什麼、感受到什麼：我們最基本的本能。我們也考慮別人的意見，用它們來得出我們自己的意見。透過未知的事物，我們覺得自己開始獲得理解。然而，如果你所在的一個國家，連基本真理都顯得模稜兩可？在這個國家，你有時候無法相信自己的眼睛，甚至無法相信自己的感受，而且真實與想像之間的界限永遠不明確。是不是有些地方注定超出我們的理解範圍？我在二○一七年搬到北韓，陪同丈夫前往位於平壤的英國駐朝鮮大使館、執行
