Michi's Memories: The Story of a Japanese War Bride

Viac o knihe

This book tells the story of Michi, one of 650 Japanese war brides who arrived in Australia in the early 1950s. The women met Australian servicemen in post-war Japan and decided to migrate to Australia as wives and fiancees to start a new life. However, it was beyond anybody's anticipation how difficult it would prove to be for them to become Australians. The author is a reseacher at the Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies in Australian National University.
