The first half of the novel’s title, “inside out,” reflects the universal refugee experience of fleeing home. This relates to Ha’s experience in various ways.

This shows how Ha was a bully who was feared by others. This proves how before the war, she was a…

Now that the client recognizes his/her problem, he/she is able to work with the therapist to come up with…
