Replaces ISBN 9780295961675 Editorial Reviews Review "Mori's superbly structured short stories are . . . tender, evocative episo des of growing up as a Japanese American prior to World War II."â??San Fran cisco Chronicle "Mori is unafraid to let the humanity of his characters and himself shine t hrough bravely."â??Oakland Tribune "A unique record of Japanese American life in Northern California in the de cades just before World War II."â??Exploration in Sights and Sounds "Originally published in 1949, these twenty-two stories present subtle glim pses into the lives of Japanese-Americans in their neighborhood in Oakland, California, aka 'Yokohama.' Mori has a delicate touch, and the stories hav e more than a passing resemblance to Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio (1 919)."â??Kirkus Reviews About the Author Toshio Mori (1910-1980) was born in Oakland, California.
