Book Club – July 9, 2014, Honolulu by Allen Brennert

July 31, 2014 by Janet Siedlecki

Twelve members of the Book Club met at the home of Jan Griffin on July 9th to discuss her choice of a classic novel written by Alan Brennert. “A moving multilayered epic by a master of historical fiction, in which one immigrant’s journey helps us understand our nations’ becoming” quoted by the San Francisco Chronicle. The era is 1914 when several young Korean women were given the opportunity to become a “Picture Bride” by Korean men who had immigrated to Honolulu earlier and wanted Korean wives…making promises of wealth and a land of “milk and honey”. It is a very moving story of four women finding their dreams shattered upon arrival in Honolulu, to a new world of disappointment, sacrifices, survival and friendship. A beautifully descriptive tale of a young picture bride named Regret, who after her troubled journey for many years realized that she had “no regrets”.
