Reviews
"[Mine Okubo] took her months of life in the concentration camp and made it the material for this amusing, heart-breaking book. . . . The moral is never expressed, but the wry pictures and the scanty words make the reader laugh - and if he is an American too - blush." - Pearl Buck"A remarkably objective and vivid and even humorous account. . . . In dramatic and detailed drawings and brief text, she documents the whole episode . . . All that she saw, objectively, yet with a warmth of understanding."-New York Times Book Review

Synopsis
Mine Okubo was one of 110,000 people of Japanese descent - nearly two-thirds of them American citizens - who were rounded up into "protective custody" shortly after Pearl Harbor. Citizen 13660 , her memoir of life in relocation centers in California and Utah, was first published in 1946, then reissued by University of Washington Press in 1983 with a new Preface by the author. With 197 pen-and-ink illustrations, and poignantly written text, the book has been a perennial bestseller, and is used in college and university courses across the country.

    The seller went above and beyond. Absolutely fantastic communication. My books (The Harry Potter Bloomsbury Paperbacks, Books 1-4) arrived exactly as described, not that I had any reservations as her original listing photographs were completely transparent and nicely done so it left little room for speculation. Inclusively she refunded me 10.00 of my original order when I did not realise she had Book 4 so I was charged less for shipping. This seller is genuinely reliable.

    This is my second time purchasing from this seller, and somehow it was better than the first. The seller reached out to let me know one book in my order was in a different condition than listed, offered a discount, and even included a surprise bonus book that looks amazing! Shipping was incredibly fast, the packaging was thoughtful and secure, and the books arrived exactly as described. I could spend hours browsing this shop--such a gem! I'll definitely be back soon!

    Item arrived fast, well packaged, and as described. I haven't seen this movie in decades. Thank you seller. For a moment I was 14 again. You can't put a price on that.
