This is fascinating - do you know what books/articles I can read to learn more about NK diets?

  My informed conjecture about NK diets is based off of a few survivor accounts from expats and a lot of background information about NK that I've picked up over the years, paired with a lot of information I learned about various other famines via Wikipedia and college. I can't suggest any specific books or articles though-- too many articles to list, and I wouldn't remember what factoid came from which article anyway. In general, I just ask a question to myself, then use the internet to find the answer. If you want related books to help think about what sorts of things happen during these times, I'd start with Maus. It's not at all related to NK, but it captures the desperation and ingenuity of long term crisis.
