A review by carnisht
Under the Blood-Red Sun by Graham Salisbury

4.0

This was a solid story. I really liked the unique perspective taken in this novel of a Japanese-American in the midst of the Pearl Harbor bombing. Most WWII books focus on Nazi Germany and ignore the atrocities committed in our own country, so it was kind of refreshing to see Salisbury tackle such an important component of America’s troubled past. Using this historical background, Salisbury also managed to create a fantastic coming-of-age story that highlighted how drastically a war can change a young man’s life.
