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.

用戶評價
最後一片大論文花落此傢。A lost Generation—the Second Generation Japanese American in Julie Otsuka's Novel. 考完試把論文翻譯齣來喵。
评分喜歡作者的敘述方法。感覺明明發生很大的變化卻用很細膩的文字體現齣來。劇情不太吸引我… 聽說是美高reading list中的書
评分不懂為啥這本作為summer reading
评分其實文筆還有些稚嫩，但是為瞭這種平實而細緻的意境。為瞭一點一點滲透的殘酷而悲傷。給Yale student。也要打五顆星
评分讀到前兩章，感覺作者的筆力還是不夠。我感覺到作者很努力地在錶達，但是有些需要傳達的東西其實並不一定搭配這樣的錶達……
