Historical fiction done best with real stories weaved into the characters hearts and minds. Real generational trauma that is still felt today in the USA. A emotional, impactful cry against those who want to forget the nation’s past actions and how they echo in political moves done by those in power today. Individual POVs so well fleshed out, a peak into each life feeling the injustice and finding their own way to cope while having to grow up and navigate imprisonment, prejudice, and powerlessness. One of the best books on the USA Japanese Incarceration Camps I’ve found in fiction and nonfiction.
