Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a lively discussion about this month's title. All are welcome.

This month we are discussing Midnight in Broad Daylight by Pamela Rotner Sakamoto. A riveting chronicle of U.S.-Japan relations and the Japanese experience in America.

After their father's death, Harry, Frank, and Pierce Fukuhara--all born and raised in the Pacific Northwest--moved to Hiroshima, their mother's ancestral home. Eager to go back to America, Harry returned in the late 1930s. Then came Pearl Harbor. Harry was sent to an internment camp until a call came for Japanese translators and he dutifully volunteered to serve his country. Back in Hiroshima, his brothers Frank and Pierce became soldiers in the Japanese Imperial Army.
