A powerful and vivid portrait of the Japanese-American internment from a person who actually lived through it. Mitsuye Yamada writes so that you feel the experiences, hardships, and decisions that Japanese-Americans had to face during this shameful time in U.S history. Typically I find poetry to be hard to understand and not relatable. Camp Notes is an easy read and I highly recommend it if you want to understand the internment.
