Book Reviews

Even if I like a book, it doesn't get a mention here unless I find it original or informative or immensely enjoyable. The last 2 books I read have fit the last 2 categories. When the Emperor Was Divine was a fictional account of one family's experiences in the Japanese Internment Camps. Having read nothing personal about this event, I enjoyed this well written yarn. Any Human Heart was extremely fun-reading about one man's journey though the modern ages and his encounters with famous people and the historical events he survived. The writing is witty and though it is a fiction, it was so true.
