Okinawa
A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard SelectionA peaceful, independent kingdom until its annexation by the Japanese Empire in the 19th century, Okinawa was the site of the most destructive land battle of the Pacific War. The first collection, Sword of Sand, is a ground level, unflinching look at the horrors of the Battle of Okinawa. Today, the archipelago is Japan's poorest prefecture and unwilling host to 75% of all US military bases in Japan.Okinawa brings together two collections of intertwined stories by the island's pre-eminent mangaka, Susumu Higa, which reflect on this difficult history and pull together traditional Okinawan spirituality, the modern-day realities of the continuing US military occupation, and the senselessness of the War.
Higa then turns an observant eye to the present-day in Mabui (Okinawan for "spirit"),
