The Buddha in the Attic by Julie Otsuka

4.0

This book was a fascinating, quick read. The use of first person plural was something I'd never seen before, and it captured a shared group experience while still giving individual experiences, specific details, beautifully. It was also a unique perspective, of Japanese immigrants, specifically of the women, right before and leading up to WW2, which you don't normally see in western literature. It was a great, informative, and fascinating read.
