The debut novel from the PEN/Faulkner Award Winning Author of The Buddha in the Attic
On a sunny day in Berkeley, California, in 1942, a woman sees a sign in a post office window, returns to her home, and matter-of-factly begins to pack her family's possessions. Like thousands of other Japanese Americans they have been reclassified, virtually overnight, as enemy aliens and are about to be uprooted from their home and sent to a dusty internment camp in the Utah desert.
In this lean and devastatingly evocative first novel, Julie Otsuka tells their story from five flawlessly realized points of view and conveys the exact emotional texture of their experience: the thin-walled barracks and barbed-wire fences, the omnipresent fear and loneliness, the unheralded feats of heroism. When the Emperor Was Divine is a work of enormous power that makes a shameful episode of our history as immediate as today's headlines.
在看这个小说的过程中,我都不知道有多挣扎。我第一次感受到了“中国人”的身份给我的心理带来的巨大影响。
评分Japanese Internment,中国的历史教材里没有涉及的历史。前面读起来无动于衷。Anna和Andrew说it's terrible的时候韩国女生和我都说跟日本人在中国韩国做的事情比起来这真是nothing.但我也知道这是不同的。和敌国战斗牺牲和被自己的国家怀疑囚禁审讯逼供当然是不同的。所有人物在后面都呈现了不同症状的trauma.有些片段读起来很受震动。
评分短句,一点点加深场景的轮廓。我感触最深的不是他们被关在camp里的那三年,而是返回家园重新融入社会的日子。在学校,小孩子们往昔的朋友全都没有了,妈妈也很难找到工作,被FBI抓走的父亲回家完全变成了一位他们认不出来的老人。不知道是什么原因被抓走,又被放回,可是生活是融入不了了,都变了。他们的确是回家了,但他们也的确回不去了。
评分喜欢作者的叙述方法。感觉明明发生很大的变化却用很细腻的文字体现出来。剧情不太吸引我… 听说是美高reading list中的书
评分最后一片大论文花落此家。A lost Generation—the Second Generation Japanese American in Julie Otsuka's Novel. 考完试把论文翻译出来喵。
