À propos de cet audio

A powerful and passionate novel, Obasan tells, through the eyes of a child, the moving story of Japanese Canadians during the Second World War.

Naomi is a sheltered and beloved five-year-old when Pearl Harbor changes her life. Separated from her mother, she watches bewildered as she and her family become enemy aliens, persecuted and despised in their own land.

Surrounded by hardship and pain, Naomi is protected by the resolute endurance of her aunt Obasan and the silence of those around her. Only after Naomi grows up does she return to question the haunting silence.

I’m ashamed I didn’t know this history about Canada. I’m so glad to have found this book. It was such an intimate first hand story of one families experience of the Japanese internment and displacement in Canada during the Second World War. Read this book!!! Your heart will be touched by the thoughtful detail and first hand experiences.

I didn’t know!

loved that it explored about how some Japanese were treated during the war. Her description of the Hiroshima bomb was accurate and sad. but her going into how she felt broke up the flow and made you wonder what is going on. overall not bad

hard read but hits some great historical truths
