The Sorcerer of Pyongyang: A Novel by Marcel Theroux

challenging emotional tense fast-paced

4.0

first of all check the TWs!! This book had so much to offer and I feel like I need to know more.
finding out it was a "true" story was insane and put a lot of my critiques of the book into perspective. why did the narrator sometimes use first person pronouns? bc he was actually writing the book from his pov. why did the book seem like it was written from some British guy's pov and not someone in the universe? bc it was! everything makes more sense now
anyway the book was a quick read and I enjoyed it, although it stressed me out non-stop for the 48 hours I spent reading it
