Reseña del libro "Evacuations"

Evacuations weaves a poetic documentary for readers, capturing the personal and political histories of the Japanese-Canadian internment in British Columbia during World War II.

With Evacuations, Kevin Irie weaves a poetic documentary for readers, capturing the personal and political histories of the Japanese-Canadian internment in British Columbia during World War II. The collection offers a rich tapestry of historical voices, revealing the devastating effects of the internment and preserving the stories of a generation gradually slipping into silence. The poems oscillate between the lyric mode and techniques of erasure poetry to highlight the dehumanizing nature of public decrees and government notices. Irie presents a history of the Canadian state’s racist policies, creating a record of painful memories replete with archival resonances. This collection will be of particular interest to readers in British Columbia and Alberta, to individuals with Japanese heritage, and all those interested in knowing more about the history of internment in North America.
