Lauren Kessler , Stubborn Twig: Three Generations in the Life of a Japanese American Family (Oregon Reads).
Stubborn Twig by Lauren Kessler is a uniquely Oregon story. It is also a sad chapter in American History. The Yasui family lived the immigrant’s dream until WWII’s racial policies landed them in an internment camp. Yet they persevered to make their dream a reality. It is this year’s selection for Bend’s Novel Idea and the statewide Oregon Reads book. The Non Fiction Book Club should have a great time discussing this important book. (booksense)… (more)
