Abstract
The dramatic existence of Japanese-American citizens during the Second World War is treated by some American writers. Janice Mirikitani, poet, writer and dancer is one of them. Born in 1942 in a 'Relocation Camp' she writes poems of great emotion and beauty, such as "For my Father", "Desert Flowers", "Braking Tradition". Yoshiko Uchida writes in Journey Home about the hard experience also after leaving the concentration camps. Hisaye Yamamoto deals also with the hardships of Japanese-Americans in the rural areas of California in "Apithalamium", and "Seventeen Syllables". Finally, another well known poet, Geraldine C. Little, of Irish origin, wrote also a moving dramatic work in 1983, Hakugai: Poem from a Concentration Campo An important chapter of American contemporary history in the context of American Japanese relations before and after the Great War.
