I think I've read about a million books on WWII and forgive me, but I've read just about all the holocaust stories I can take. This book was a fresh perspective on the war, taking place in America (Seattle, to be exact, which is fascinating for someone who has lived there--I'll never look at the International District the same way again!). It deals with the Japanese internment camps that thousands of Japanese were "evacuated" to after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I had no idea the Chinese and Japanese had such animosity for each other, which makes the love story this history revolves around (between a young Chinese boy and Japanese girl) that much more poignant. As the title suggests, very bitter and very sweet. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80367489 Hell Is Other Parents: And Other Tales of Maternal Combustion (Paperback) by Deborah Copaken Kogan
