책소개

How do the Japanese and Okinawans remember Occupation? How is memory constructed and transmitted? Michael Molasky explores these questions through careful, sensitive readings of literature from mainland Japan and Okinawa. This book sheds light on difficult issues of war, violence, prostitution, colonialism and post-colonialism in the context of the Occupations of Japan and Okinawa.

Through careful analysis of literary texts and attention to writers and works long excluded from Japan's postwar literary canon, this book introduces fresh perspectives on the occupation era.
