I knew a man whose father was a Japanese interpreter during WWII, he would not allow his family to speak Japanese after the war. Book was well researched and well written, 400 pgs read through smoothly. McMorris's characterizations are well written. The Japanese mother reminded me of the Japanese women who I met in Hawaii, they would have immigrated during the same time period. Very good insights into the families surviving during wartime. This is the third book which I have read by McMorris and I hope to see more written by her.
