In 1939, as Poland falls under the shadow of the Nazis, young Alma Belasco's parents send her away to live in safety with an aunt and uncle in their opulent mansion in San Francisco. There, as the rest of the world goes to war, she encounters Ichimei Fukuda, the quiet and gentle son of the family's Japanese gardener. Unnoticed by those around them, a tender love affair begins to blossom. Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the two are cruelly pulled apart as Ichimei and his family--like thousands of other Japanese Americans--are declared enemies and forcibly relocated to internment camps run by the United States government. Throughout their lifetimes, Alma and Ichimei reunite again and again, but theirs is a love that they are forever forced to hide from the world. Decades later, Alma is nearing the end of her long and eventful life. Irina Bazili, a care worker struggling to come to terms with her own troubled past, meets the elderly woman and her grandson, Seth, at San Francisco's charmingly eccentric Lark House nursing home. As Irina and Seth forge a friendship, they become intrigued by a series of mysterious gifts and letters sent to Alma, eventually learning about Ichimei and this extraordinary secret passion that has endured for nearly seventy years. Sweeping through time and spanning generations and continents, The Japanese Lover explores questions of identity, abandonment, redemption, and the unknowable impact of fate on our lives. Written with the same attention to historical detail and keen understanding of her characters that Isabel Allende has been known for since her landmark first novel The House of the Spirits, The Japanese Lover is a profoundly moving tribute to the constancy of the human heart in a world of unceasing change"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library CD -- Compact Disc BoD Allende 1381 A-H Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Aina Haina Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD Allende (8discs) Claimed Returned 02/24/2017 Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library CD -- Compact Disc BK ON CD/ADULT #2206 A-H Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library CD -- Compact Disc BOD Allende   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD Fic Allende Audiobook Checked out 07/06/2024 Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library CD -- Compact Disc AB ALLENDE Audiobooks Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library CD -- Compact Disc CD FIC   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library CD -- Compact Disc Book on CD   Checked out 07/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD/Bk Allende 8 discs Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library CD -- Compact Disc CD Allende [audiobook] Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 Next
