When the world community learned about Kim Jong Il's successor in 2011, no one was sure of Kim Jong Un's exact age or any other fact from his life, let alone the young leader's plans to rule the country. His figure is still surrounded by myths and conjectures - from assurances that he has been driving a car and piloting planes since childhood, to bloody stories about objectionable members of the Kim family who "disappeared" on his orders. For her book, The Washington Post journalist Anna Fifield gathered all the information about Kim Jong-un that could be found in order to create the most reliable portrait of the most mysterious leader of the most closed state in the world. She conducted hundreds of hours of interviews both with those who personally communicated with the Beloved and Respected Comrade Kim Jong-un, and with those who fled from the regime or were favored by it. The author dated the Kim family's sushi chef, who was something of a playmate for little Kim Jong-un; found his aunt and uncle, who had fled to America, his guardians, while the young heir was studying in Switzerland; communicated with people who accompanied Dennis Rodman during his basketball-diplomatic mission to North Korea. Here is a fascinating biography of a basketball fanatic, caricatured dictator and prudent strategist whose goal is to prove his strength and maintain the regime he inherited against the odds.
