Alan Brennert , Honolulu.

Honolulu by Alan Brennert follows the life a “picture bride” from Korea as her fortunes intertwine with the growth of Hawaii. It is a lovely book with vignettes featuring figures from history. Clarence Darrow, Somerset Maugham, and many others make brief appearances. The fiction book club should have a good time with this discussion. (booksense)… (més)
