I included a lot of disclaimers. It’s a heavy read… lots of content that can be too much to handle at times.

This entire story is heartbreaking and is a necessary read. It took weeks to get through because things were so hard to stomach but I truly cannot express the appreciation I feel toward Yeonmi for being brave and willing to share her experiences.
