Night in the American Village: Women in the Shadow of the U.S. Military Bases in Okinawa

Platform: Has written for NPR’s All Things Considered and Code Switch, and written about Okinawa for The Nation, Roads & Kingdoms, Off Assignment, The Asian American Literary Review, and Kyoto Journal. Timely: The trial of a former base worker for the rape and murder of a Japanese woman in 2016 is currently ongoing; the final section of the book will include the outcome of that case. Also, with North Korea in the news, the bases in the East Asian regions will only get more attention–and the 2020 Olympics will ensure Japan (and its relationship with the U.S. and its own neighbors) is in the international spotlight. Existing interest in Japan and the Okinawa: The article on which the book is based was named by Longreads and other sites among the best of 2013. Reviews There are no reviews yet.
