Produktbeschreibung

At the height of WWII, Japanese forces occupy the Korean peninsula. Hana and Jina Bak are Korean at heart but divided in their affections for their "new culture." It would be normal teenage behavior if they weren't trafficked into being "Comfort Women" for the Japanese military. The girls must learn how to navigate the rules of the comfort station, ally themselves with powerful friends, and resist the temptations many sex slaves succumb to. With a newfound appreciation for sibling relationships and devotion to ones' family, the girls must decide the best way to get home before they lose their lives, their sanity, and their very souls. In the vein of the Joy Luck Club, Creatures of Comfort imbues the reader with a sense of fate vs. will, good or bad luck, and family ghosts.

Autorenporträt

E.J. lives down south with her big family and rescue dogs. She is an entrepreneur and writer and is addicted to reading, kids and creative and business pursuits. Creatures of Comfort started many years ago when her father could not talk about what happened to young girls in his occupied home country of South Korea when he was a child. He had said it was too horrifying and therefore not many people should talk about it. E.J. didn't agree with tha--how awfull could it be? She had to know why. Many hours of research at the National Archives and online hours spent reading bios resulted in a recurring dream in which the comfort women, now all very old or deceased told E.J. she was "taking too long to tell the world" their story. This is what resulted.
