Hardcover. First edition. First Edition [stated]. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. [10], 342 p. Illustrations. Map. Family Tree "In the Absence of Sun" tells what happened after Lee's last book "Still Life with Rice." Skirting the Chinese border with Korea, fighting the cold, bribing border guards, paying off gangsters, and mani…pulating secret service agents, Helie and her family ultimately freed eight additional members of her extended family who had remained in the north. From Wikipedia: "Helie Lee (born August 29, 1964) is a Korean American writer and university lecturer who has also made a documentary film. Lee was born in Seoul, South Korea. Her family moved to Montreal, Canada when she was four years old. A year later, they emigrated to the United States, settling in California. Lee graduated from UCLA in 1986 with a college degree in Political Science. Lee became active in raising awareness of human rights issues for North Korean defectors. In 2002, she testified before the Senate Subcommittee Hearing on Immigration to urge increased American support for North Korean refugees. Still Life With Rice is a novel written by Helie Lee, and published in 1997 by Simon & Schuster. It is based on accounts of suffering due to war and child abuse. Although it is written by Helie Lee, the book is mostly written from the veiwpoint of Lee's grandmother, Hongyong Baek. In the book, Lee expresses her annoyance for the way her mother and grandmother think she is too Americanized, and should be more Korean. It was described by Booklist as having "great narrative power". In her second book, In the Absence of Sun(1998), Lee recounts her family's experiences in helping her uncle escape from North Korea. In 2010, she released a documentary called Macho Like Me, in which she "doffs all signifiers of femininity to live as a man". A review in the LA Weekly panned the "cutsey one woman-show framing device" but stated that the experiences that "upend [Lee's] preconceptions, mak[e] for engrossing viewing." Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed by author. Inscription signed on title page.
