The Aquariums of Pyongyang

Ten Years in the North Korean Gulag

Kang Chol-Hwan, Pierre Rigoulot, Trans. Yair Reiner

Kang Chol-Hwan is the first person to have documented his experiences in a North Korean gulag. In this memoir he recalls a happy childhood spent collecting tropical fish before, at nine years old, he and his family were arrested because of his grandfather’s ‘treason’. He describes the forced labour and near starvation he endured, and the executions he was forced to witness, before his release and flight to the South.
