olivia_eberli's review against another edition

challenging dark emotional funny reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.5

This book examines an important part of world history, Japanese history and culture, and American history. I have learned a lot from Barefoot Gen. I will be reading the rest of the volumes to find out what happens to Gen.
