Book Review
Introduction
Farewell to Manzanar is a frank, and sometimes, heartbreaking story that many people living in the United States are not aware of. The events described in the book occurred during the World War II when American Japanese were sent to the internment camp after bombing Pearl Harbor. The author brought up several themes including economic and legal injustice done to peaceful Japanese Americans, survival requirements in the internment camps, contradictions inside families based on generational differences, and difficulties experienced by Japanese Americans when they aimed to rebuild their lives after being imprisoned in the camps.
