Requests:  0 Summary:  "From the O. Henry Prize-winning author comes a heartbreakingly beautiful and brutal exploration of lives fragmented by the Pacific side of World War II. Spanning more than 150 years, and set in multiple locations in colonial and postcolonial Asia and the United States, Inheritors paints a kaleidoscopic portrait of its characters as they grapple with the legacies of loss, imperialism, and war. Written from myriad perspectives and in a wide range of styles, each of these interconnected stories is designed to speak to the others, contesting assumptions and illuminating the complicated ways we experience, interpret, and pass on our personal and shared histories. A retired doctor, for example, is forced to confront the horrific moral consequences of his wartime actions. An elderly woman subjects herself to an interview, gradually revealing a fifty-year old murder and its shattering aftermath. And in the last days of a doomed war, a prodigal son who enlisted against his parents' wishes survives the American invasion of his island outpost, only to be asked for a sacrifice more daunting than any he imagined. Serizawa's characters walk the line between the devastating realities of war and the banal needs of everyday life as they struggle to reconcile their experiences with the changing world. A breathtaking meditation on suppressed histories and the relationship between history, memory, and storytelling, Inheritors stands in the company of Lisa Ko, Viet Thanhn Nguyen and Min Jin Lee"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lanai P/S Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Fiction Serizawa Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
