the Emperor Was Divine that tells the story of a group of young women brought from Japan to San
Francisco as "picture brides" nearly a century ago. In eight unforgettable sections  The Buddha
in the Attic traces the extraordinary lives of these women  from their arduous journeys by boat

experiences raising children who would later reject their culture and language  to the
deracinating arrival of war. Once again  Julie Otsuka has written a spellbinding novel about
identity and loyalty  and what it means to be an American in uncertain times.
