Arriving in Seattle on the eve of World War II, Japanese-born Mitsuko falls for Tom and becomes surrogate mother to his American toddler, Bill. But the bombing of Pearl Harbor strains the newly formed family as government mandates force Mitsuko and Bill to leave for the Minidoka Internment Camp. Two decades later, memories of Minidoka and Mitsuko haunt Bill, sparking an arduous journey that leads him to Japan to find his mother and learn the truth about their shared past. The Sun Gods (Chin Music) is the new novel from Jay Rubin, one of Haruki Murakami's longtime English translators.
