Nimura, from the foreword. This is the story of one woman's remarkable life successfully navigating two very different cultures—the first memoir of an Asian-American woman. Beautifully told, this immigrant's account of an unforgettable journey is the story of a headstrong and empowered woman—a loyal wife, a widowed mother and a bilingual breadwinner—finding her way and finding her voice in a strange new world. Follow in her footsteps and trace the remarkable trajectory of her life as she • Witnesses her father prepare and perform the ritual seppuku and her mother burn down the family home • Bids an emotional farewell and sails across the ocean to marry a wealthy merchant in a new land • Returns to Tokyo with her two daughters and mother-in-law, only to find her homeland just as alien as America, forcing her to reinvent herself again in order to provide for her family • Returns to America with her children following the death of her mother-in-law An international bestseller when it was first published a century ago, A Daughter of the Samurai emerges as a rare testament to a singular woman's resolve, strength and endurance. This edition features a new foreword by 2022 Pulitzer Prize finalist Janice P. Nimura.
