CCW Book Club: Julie Otsuka's 2003 novel "When the Emperor was Divine

  • 04/07/2013
  • 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
  • TBD. We generally meet at a Metro-accessible public space or member's home,
The CCW Book Club invites you to join us to discuss the 2013 selection for Cornell's New Student Reading Project. Julie Otsuka's 2003 novel "When the Emperor was Divine" describes a family's three-and-a-half-year-long  experience in internment camps during World War II. From varied perspectives -- the two young children, the mother, the internment community and the father -- the novel offers a concrete view of personal struggle, dignity and tragedy in a context of exile and racism.

Location: (tentative) A member's home in Columbia Heights. RSVP for details.
