Finalist for the 2011 National Book AwardJulie Otsukas long awaited followup to When the Emperor Was Divine (To watch Emperor catching on with teachers and students in vast numbers is to grasp what must have happened at the outset for novels like Lord of the Flies and To Kill a Mockingbird The New York Times) is a tour de force of economy and precision, a novel that tells the story of a group of young women brought over from Japan to San Francisco as picture brides nearly a century ago.In eight incantatory sections, The Buddha in the Attic traces their extraordinary lives, from their arduous journey by boat, where they exchange photographs of their husbands, imagining uncertain futures in an unknown land; to their arrival in San Francisco and their tremulous first nights as new wives; to their backbreaking work picking fruit in the fields and scrubbing the floors of white women; to their struggles to master a new language and a new culture; to their experiences in childbirth, and then as mothers, raising children who will ultimately reject their heritage and their history; to the deracinating arrival of war.In language that has the force and the fury of poetry, Julie Otsuka has written a singularly spellbinding novel about the American dream.

The narrative style of The Buddha in the Attic is unlike anything I've read before. I loved how it flowed from one character's experience to another. It really captures the struggles and hopes of the Japanese women depicted.

Empathetic and beautifully written
I thoroughly enjoyed The Buddha in the Attic. The book's empathy towards the characters is palpable, and I found myself really connecting with their stories. It's a poignant reflection on identity and belonging that I would suggest to friends.
