Absolutely fantastic.
The forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans is underrepresented in literature. I'm so glad this book exists to highlight this important atrocity in such a nuanced, personal, and accessible way. These connected short stories bring each character to vivid life and shows how varied their experiences were, but there is also a sense of a central narrative as we move through time and their collective experiences.
