Description
"Honolulu"
By Alan Brennert
"In Korea in those days, newborn girls were not deemed important enough to be graced with formal names, but were instead given nicknames, which often reflected the parents' feelings on the birth of a daughter: I knew a girl named Anger, and another called Pity. As for me, my parents named me Regret."
"Honolulu" is the rich, unforgettable story of a young "picture bride" who journeys to Hawai'i in 1914 in search of a better life.
