These Japanese women gave up everything in the early 20th century to marry a stranger in the United States, based on a portrait. The man they dreamed of so much, who would disappoint them so greatly. In a vibrant chorus, their voices rise to tell the story of exile: the wedding night, the days in the fields, the harsh language, the humiliation, and also the joys. Then the silence of war. And oblivion.
With enchanting prose, Julie Otsuka brings these anonymous heroines back to life in a dazzling mosaic of memory. A moving novel.
Translated from English (United States) by Carine Chichereau
