About this ebook

No country is as misunderstood as North Korea, and no modern tyrant has remained more mysterious than the Dear Leader, Kim Jong Il. Now, celebrity ghostwriter Michael Malice pulls back the curtain to expose the life story of the "Incarnation of Love and Morality." Taken directly from books spirited out of Pyongyang, DEAR READER is a carefully reconstructed first-person account of the man behind the mythology.

From his miraculous rainbow-filled birth during the fiery conflict of World War II, Kim Jong Il watched as his beloved Korea finally earned its freedom from the cursed Japanese. Mere years later, the wicked US imperialists took their chance at conquering the liberated nation—with devastating results. But that's only the beginning of the Dear Leader's story.

In DEAR READER, Kim Jong Il explains:

*How he can shrink time

*Why he despises the Mona Lisa

*How he recreated the arts in Korea

*Why the Juche idea is the greatest concept ever discovered by man

*How he handled the crippling famine

*Why Kim Jong Un was chosen as successor over his elder brothers

With nothing left uncovered, drawing straight from dozens of books, hundreds of articles and thousands of years of Korean history, DEAR READER is both the definitive account of Kim Jong Il's life and the complete stranger-than-fiction history of the world's most unique country.

Great peek into North Korea's propaganda. I've been wanting to read this type of thing for the longest time. Heck, the first time I saw that man that looked like the type who would barely cry about anything weeping uncontrollably for Kim Jong-IL. These people run frantically to their "Great Leader" and it's all because of some philosophy built off of ending Imperial rule. Well it's hard to see them as anything different from that "Imperial Rule" with all the things we run across when studying this country. I mean it's a dang dynasty! That as royal as you can get! There definitely are a few things here that would get me hyped up for Revolution and there are definitely a few things that made my eyes roll. I am glad they are fighting for the Korean people by influencing education, pride and fierce compassion. Their system is built for the Korean people. This is some of the things they are taught. I hope their country becomes that utopia that they are trying to build. Great Source!
