Summer of the Big Bachi by Naomi Hirahara

3.0

More than a mystery, this book explores how Hiroshima survivors, Nissei who were imprisoned and those who fought for the US make sense of their lives in LA many years later. It's a much more complex picture of a Japanese American community than I have read. The characters keep surprising me, too, becoming more nuanced as the book concluded.
