Loyalty, Shame & American Identity | No-No Boy by John Okada [Book Discussion & Summary]

Описание: What happens when your country sees you as the enemy—and so does your community?

In No-No Boy, John Okada delivers a profound, unflinching look at the aftermath of Japanese American internment during World War II. Ichiro Yamada, who refused to swear loyalty to the U.S. and serve in the military, returns home branded a traitor by his peers and haunted by guilt, alienation, and a fractured identity. This landmark novel is a powerful exploration of race, nationalism, and the struggle to define yourself when caught between two worlds.
