Comments
It was very nice to get together with you all last weekend. the two books that i gave Stephanie and Sherry were Black Rain by Masuji Ibuse and Child of the Sun by Kenjiro Haitani.
I found more information about Black Rain: http://books.google.com/books?id=fLFc7vWoJWwC&dq=black+rain+ibuse&pg=PP1&ots=qyNiLVO0Sz&sig=EmXXn0mCHGDShZ3S-HljpWXjEQo&prev=http://www.google.com/search%3Fsource%3Dig%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D%26q%3Dblack%2Brain%2Bibuse%26btnG%3DGoogle%2BSearch&sa=X&oi=print&ct=title&cad=one-book-with-thumbnail#PPP1,M1.
Wow that is a long link. The English translation available. Looks like English version of Child of the Sun is not available. But there are some scholars that talk about multi-ethnicity of Japan and they refer to the book. Here is one of them. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2278/is_n4_v18/ai_14878610/pg_1.
