"Boyhood memories of home and growing up in a coastal village along the ocean's edge in Japan never faded and they remained with him a life time. The remembered images were not true depictions of place and time as nostalgia idealized those images that took root in his mind's eye and thence served to remind him from whence he came. Yoshi, a Number Two Son who would inherit nothing, was expected to make his own way in the world. He manages to reach America by sailing west and learns the fortune he sought is elusive. Leaving behind buoyant New York City, he joins a thriving Japanese immigrant community in Seattle a year before the Great Depression. As a settler, Yoshi marries, a child is born, and six years later his wife dies. Single parent Yoshi and daughter, Midori, spend the War years in an Idaho internment camp during World War II. On returning to Seattle, Yoshi keeps busy working and writing his poetry. The story has become the daughter's coming of age tales and young adulthood tribulations in a post war world." --
