Kim (Richard Eun Kook Kim 1932-2009), paints seven vivid scenes from a boyhood and early adolescence in Korea at the height of the Japanese occupation in 1932-45. Taking its title from the grim fact that the occupiers forced the Koreans to renounce their own names and adopt Japanese names instead, the book follows one Korean family through the Japanese occupation to the surrender of the Japanese empire. 'Lost Names' is at once a loving memory of family and a vivid portrayal of life in a time of anguish. Quite a scarce book. Seller Inventory # 006594
