Coming Home from Camp and Other Poems - Paperback

by Lonny Kaneko (Author)

Within these pages are poems in which Lonny Kaneko expresses the reverberating trauma of his family's imprisonment in the Minidoka concentration camp during WWII. Without committing a crime or due process, the Kaneko family was among 120,000 Japanese Americans put in concentration camps in the United States. Kaneko's illuminating poetry: touching, evocative, reflecting a deep sense of sadness--also reflects in its range, the depth of resilience and the transcendence of the human spirit.
