Miki's mad / George Tanabe. by Tanabe, George Joji. Kamuela, HI : Deuxmers, 2024. Subjects Prostitutes -- Hawaii -- Fiction.   Pimps -- Hawaii -- Fiction.   Immigrants -- Japan -- Fiction.   Waialua (Oahu, Hawaii) -- History -- 19th century -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781944521219 (paperback) Description:  338 p. ; 22 cm. Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "Miki’s Mad tells the tragicomic story of how a Japanese immigrant at a sugar plantation in 1900s Hawaii made a fast fortune, not by working the fields, but by diving beneath social customs to mine the depths of love, greed, revenge, ambition, kindness, dreams and other human conditions. On a steamship from Japan to Hawaii, Shuzo Taga discovers Miki, a young woman who is slowly going mad—angry, insane and wildly funny—but she, sustained by the spirit of a sardonic cat, enables him to turn their fantasies into cash. This picaresque tale upends cultural stereotypes as our protagonist outmarts everyone, including himself. This novel is also a love song to Waialua, on the north shore of O‘ahu."--P.
