Journey to Topaz (50th Anniversary Edition)
«
"The novel, set in Utah’s western desert, where thousands of Japanese American families were held as prisoners, remains a haunting reminder of how indignities and dignity can reside side by side." —Terry Tempest Williams, New York Times
"Reading Journey to Topaz in the twenty- first century can be heart-breaking and infuriating, but I also hope it is empowering, especially to young people, because even if we can never truly right the wrongs of our past, we can still act—right now—so that we do not have to carry these wrongs into the future." —Traci Chee, author of We Are Not Free, from the foreword to this edition
"Yoshiko Uchida blazed a trail in Japanese American storytelling, identifying the delicate yet strong strand that kept families together under harsh and destructive circumstances. It’s no surprise why this groundbreaking novel for younger readers has remained a classic." —Naomi Hirahara, author of Clark and Division and 1001 Cranes
