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
短句，一點點加深場景的輪廓。我感觸最深的不是他們被關在camp裏的那三年，而是返迴傢園重新融入社會的日子。在學校，小孩子們往昔的朋友全都沒有瞭，媽媽也很難找到工作，被FBI抓走的父親迴傢完全變成瞭一位他們認不齣來的老人。不知道是什麼原因被抓走，又被放迴，可是生活是融入不瞭瞭，都變瞭。他們的確是迴傢瞭，但他們也的確迴不去瞭。
评分隻能迴到過去看過去，而不能站在現在看過去。戰爭就是戰爭。有些片段看著來氣。不同情。
评分熱淚盈眶還要一邊劃生詞……
评分不懂為啥這本作為summer reading
