Unbelonging
By David Jepsen
Welcome to the City on the Sound where no one is sure where they belong. Jepsen has written a compelling story of four families coping with hate and exclusion in a city transformed by WWII. The characters include a defense worker turned labor activist who endangers herself and her family; a war hero who faces a racial battlefield at home; a Japanese internee who learns the end of war did not end the hate, and a British war bride who discovers the American dream isn't for everyone. This is a novel about a city — Seattle — plagued with racial tensions, labor unrest, and Cold War hysteria.
