North Korea is like no other tyranny on earth. It is Orwell`s 1984 made reality. The regime controls the flow of information to its citizens, pouring relentless propaganda through omnipresent loud speakers. Free speech is an illusion: one word out of line & the gulag awaits. State spies are everywhere, ready to punish disloyalty & the slightest sign of discontent. You must bow to Kim Il Sung, the Eternal Leader & to his son, Generalissimo Kim Jong Il. Worship the dead & then hail the living, the Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un. North Koreans are told their home is the greatest nation on earth. Big Brother is always watching. Posing as a university professor, award-winning BBC journalist John Sweeney travelled undercover to gain unprecedented access to the world`s most secret state. Drawing on his own experiences & his extensive interviews with defectors & other key witnesses, North Korea Undercover pulls back the curtain, providing a rare insight into life there today, examining the country`s troubled history & addressing important questions about its uncertain future. Sweeney`s highly engaging, authoritative account illuminates the dark side of the Hermit Kingdom & challenges the West`s perception of this paranoid nationalist state. ...

As an already unstable North Korea grows ever more unpredictable, antagonizing enemies & allies alike, North Korea: State of Paranoia delivers a provocative & frightening account of a potentially explosive nuclear tripwire. ...
