“This short book is not a novel with a plot, but a commentary on the suffering of Japanese women brought to California to become wives of Japanese men based on the exchange of photos. Their disillusionment and despair with their new life circumstances only becomes greater after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It is written in a poetic way with single sentence references to the tribulations of individual women. ”
