### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    wonderful heartbreaking story
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2008*

This is one of the most wonderful stories I have read in a very long time.  It deals with around 70 years of history of a japanese farming community in Brazil, beginning with the birth of the community, its demise and finally the integration of the younger generation as well as their attempts to connect to a homeland that doesn't really exist.  The story is told through several characters:  Ichiro, who comes to Brazil as a young boy and witnesses the birth of the colony, only to find out that his dream has been shred to pieces by the same man that made him believe in it in the first place, Haru, who we see grow from the beauty of the colony to an old resourceful grandma that endures all of her husband's infidelities, Kantaro, who at the beginning appears to be a dreamer but at the end turns out to destroy everyone's lives (with a mother and a daughter, Kimi and Akiko being the victims with the most heartbreaking stories), Genji, Kantaro's nephew who grows up in the commune but fails to adapt to life in Post-War Brazil and finally Guilherme, a second generation japanese who is and feels brazilian.  Read it now!

    Good historical fiction
  

*by J***Z on Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2003*

"Brazil-Maru" is the story of a Japanese colony in the countryside of Sao Paulo State throughout the twentieth century. Although the locations and ideas are real, the story itself is not. "Brazil-Maru" is an interesting book with living characters and is a good "fictional" account of the lives of Japanese immigrants to Brazil in this past century.
