I love fiction that takes me somewhere I don't know and reveals to me things I never knew. This story is also a tender love story: not in a schmaltzy sense, though. It tells of human cruelty and compassion, flawed and beautiful relationships, loyalty, misguided and progressive patriotism, and the ending is satisfying.

1986, The Panama Hotel The old Seattle landmark has been boarded up for decades, but now the new owner has made a startling discovery in the basement: personal belongings stored away by Japanese families sent to interment camps during the Second World War.

This is a classic novel, and deserves to still be read for its importance historically. Not many novels cover so accurately that turbulent period of Britain's Chartist rebellion of the 1840s - and the reason so many talented individuals were lost to the country, emigrating to the United States to help build that nation.

I still enjoyed it despite that, and would recommend it to anyone interested in that period.
