If you're someone who's puzzled by North Korea's enigmatic presence on the world stage, "The Cleanest Race" by B.R. Myers offers a thought-provoking lens through which to understand the nation. Rather than focusing on nuclear ambitions, this book delves into the deeper layers of North Korean ideology, uncovering the potent mix of paranoia and racial pride that shapes its politics and societal views. It's a fascinating, if somewhat unsettling, exploration of how North Koreans perceive themselves and their place in the global landscape.
