I can tonight when I get home, there are several really good books to read.
One of the new ones that I've ordered but haven't picked up is called "How they see us" Its a study of North Korean internal propaganda efferts"
This book is excellent, its the entire history of North Korea from the Japanese occupation on. However its a little dated as it dosen't cover the next generations of Kim, however there's a wealth of interviews by defectors that has to be read to be beleived

I just picked up a new one written by a Noth Korean defector that covers the history of North Korea and basically leads up to the succession beyond Kim Il-Jong's death. I'll post the name of that one tonight
