Description
Join Don Layton as he discusses the Big Read book for 2018, When the Emperor was Divine by Julie Otsuka. This lean and devastatingly evocative novel tells a story from five flawlessly realized points of view and conveys the exact emotional texture of their experiences in a United States internment camp. Layton will give us historical context to understand the history around these characters and the impact this period had on the United States.
