Description
Die Kombination aus persönlichen Erinnerungen und historischer Aufarbeitung bringt die emotionale Schwere dieser Zeit zum Ausdruck. Takei und sein Team schaffen es, komplexe Themen wie Identität, Zugehörigkeit und Widerstandskraft auf zu fesselnde Weise zu vermitteln. Hier wird nicht nur erzählt, was passiert ist, sondern auch, wie diese Erfahrungen das Leben eines kleinen Jungen prägten.
Durch die warmherzige und doch nüchterne Erzählweise erkennt man, wie Widerstandsfähigkeit und Hoffnung selbst in finstersten Zeiten bestehen können. Diese Graphic Novel ist nicht nur eine Hommage an die Vergangenheit, sondern lädt auch dazu ein, über aktuelle Fragen zur Menschlichkeit nachzudenken.

I'm not big on reading about history just because I usually find reading about history. It gets me really boring like it's just really boring. I do like learning about history so it's just a knack of finding the right book. My friend sent me this book and told me that I need to try reading it because it was really good, especially given the fact that I have a very big connection to the Asian and Pacific American culture and the idea that like I love it and I love learning about the culture itself and watching movies and TV shows about Asian and Pacific island Americans as well. And so when I did pick up this book I was okay. Well this is a very thick book for a history lesson. I don't know if I'm going to be able to get through it and not get bored, but then when I realized that it was at more of a graphic novel then just a straight up history lesson I was like okay I can get with it. I can get through this easily. Though. I will say I did not take one whole day to read this. It took me a couple days to read this more so because I was reading other books at the same time, but I absolutely love this book. I also did not realize that this was about the same George who played in Star Trek, so that was also really fun to realize when I opened the book and started reading. Either way, I love the story! I love how he recanted on his memories of child going through this and into his adult life. It was really well written and I absolutely fell in love with it.
I was gonna give it a 5 since I teared up....a lot... but the ameRicAN deMocrACY shit at the end was an instant boner killer oops
