Description

Takeo Nakano immigrated to Canada from Japan in 1920, later marrying and starting a circle of relatives in his adopted place of birth. Takeo’s passion used to be poetry, and he cultivated the exquisite form referred to as tanka. Then came the Second World War. Takeo Nakano used to be considered one of thousands of Japanese men forcibly separated from his circle of relatives in 1942 and interned in labor camps within the British Columbia interior. Takeo used to be a type of who protested the forced labor within the camps and the separation from his circle of relatives. His punishment used to be to be sent even further away, to an isolated internment camp in northern Ontario. This book, first published in 1982, is a rare first-person account of the revel in of internment. This new edition features a foreword by his daughter, Leatrice M. Willson Chan, with whom he collaborated in getting ready his memoir.
