Synopsis "Kyugoro"

After a recent discovery that her great-great uncle, Kyugoro, emigrated to the US at the turn of the 20th century, MAKIKO has woven a storyline that describes the journey Japanese people emigrating to the US would have experienced during the period between the late 19th century and post-war. Part of a larger project, the book focusses on the hysteria following the Pearl Harbour Attack, and how it impacted on people with Japanese ancestry. Over 120,000 people were sent to 10 internment camps across the United States. The book is deeply relevant to today's challenges: emigrating in pursuit of a dream, navigating societal changes brought about by conflict/war, and struggling to establish identity, finding community, and reconciling belief/religion. It reflects Kyugoro's experiences and those of countless other immigrants.
