Obasan: A Never-ending Past

In life, people live in the future as a moment of their memory and smile memory. At the same time, people will also experience memory of difficult and unfortunate events, and it may lead to their pain and trauma. People think that in the novel concerning the Japanese Canadian family Ogasan Ogawa Hiki, the trauma experience facing people is putting a burden on their lives. This is conveyed by the internal confrontation faced by various characters of the story, how to write stories, and the story settings.

Obasan: Obasan is outdated. She loses her hearing and is clogged with a lacrimal duct. Through her life, she was with Naomi. Obasan always teaches Naomi and serves her there. She is a mysterious person and I will not tell anyone. She always gives pieces and mystery to things. This is another book I think I do not like. Because it is written in that style. I usually do not like the first person's book, and I do not like books with many books. In their explanation. But I was pleasantly surprised, and I really liked the way the whole story is deployed. Among these three books, this is my second favorite. In the history of the United States, we learned how America treats Japanese Americans, but we never know how other countries treat their Japanese citizens.

In Obasan, that name is called an alternative to role playing instead of the role of mother. Obazan is strengthening Naomi's national consciousness. Because she is very closely related to Japanese way of life and the past. Obasan is a sacrificial mother who satisfies her needs and leads Naomi to "respect the hope of others in front of us" (0.128). As a surrogate mother, Obasan is a family forgotten unbearable, horrible and atrocious acts that Nikkei Canadians deliberately suffered. However, Obasan tried to destroy Naomi as a nightmare of Naomi 's life.
