About this listen
It is early 1942, and Australia is in the midst of war. While working at a Japanese hospital in the port of Broome, Dr. Ibaraki is arrested and sent to Loveday internment camp in a remote corner of South Australia. As tensions at the isolated camp escalate, the doctor's beliefs are thrown into question, and he is forced to confront his past: the promise he made in Japan and its devastating consequences.

Gentle thoughtful
And a period of Australian history I didn't know much about. It's a bit slow but worth persevering. Narration is excellent

The more you read it, the better it gets
I have read this book three time, each time I pick up on things that I didn’t notice previously. I love learning about Japanese culture throughout this book. Highly recommend!!

A lovely insight into another world
I really enjoyed this story, told in the voice of a Japanese doctor who was imprisoned in Australia in the war. The narrator was perfect for the character and easy to listen to.

A Chilling Reminder of War
A very confronting book of how Governments go "feral " and delusion in their desire to seek ultimate glory at whatever expense to humanity. The hero of this book, is a true hero! If this book is fiction, it is to close to the truth!

Engaging story
Well told, engaging from the beginning. Narrator was also excellent. The story brings to light our history…which I hope we learn from.

A well crafted, believable story. Also, narration is superb. After finishing the last chapter, it still lingers in your mind.

Intriguing.
I was totally absorbed in this book & found it hard to turn off. It relates some of the happenings of the "other side" during the second world war. The narration was excellent.

Boring
Boring from start to finish. I persevered hoping that there might be some highlights that would reassure me that the great reviews that I had read might pan out. Not at it! This one will be going back!
