In 1940s Vancouver, the Japanese have just bombed Pearl Harbor and racial tension is building. The RCMP are rounding up “suspicious” young men, fishing boats and property are being seized, and internment camps are only months away. Daniel Sugiura, a young reporter for the New Canadian, the only Japanese Canadian newspaper allowed to keep publishing during the war, reveals the stories of members of Vancouver’s Japanese community in the midst of war.

This collection of stories explores the personal and political histories of young Asian Canadian characters to explain their unique perspectives of the world, artfully fusing pure delusion and abstract perception with heartbreaking reality. Doretta Lau’s stories feature the children and grandchildren of immigrants, transnational adoptees and multiracial adults who came of age in the 1990s - all struggling to find a place in the Western world and using the only language they know to express their hopes, fears, and expectations.
