Holiday at the Dictator's Guesthouse

by Joshua Hunt

In May 2014, the North Korean government detained a mild-mannered municipal worker from Ohio named Jeffrey Fowle. His crime? Leaving behind a Bible in the restroom of a bar he'd visited with his tour group. Fowle’s captors soon learned that the offense wasn’t an accident. Rather, Fowle claimed to be on a mission from God, sent to bring the Holy Book to support underground Christians in North Korea. In “Holiday at the Dictator’s Guesthouse,” Joshua Hunt reveals Fowle’s day-to-day existence during his Kafkaesque detention and explores the mind and motivations of the man who risked his freedom inside a brutal regime.
