Every week we ask a North Korean your questions, giving you the chance to learn more about the country we know so little about.

Jae-young grew up in North Korea but now lives in the South, and is happy to tell you all about her past. So if you have a burning question for her, get in touch and send us your questions. This week, David N. asks the following:

What kinds of books are readily available in North Korea? Are foreign books available?  

As far as literature is concerned, censorship and ideology direct everything in North Korea.
