Soon to be a major film starring Ethan Hawke, directed by Scott Hicks (Shine).San Piedro Island in Puget Sound is a place so isolated that no one who lives there can afford to make enemies. But in 1954 a local fisherman is found suspiciously drowned, and a Japanese-American named Kabuo Miyamoto is charged with his murder.In the course of the ensuing trial, it becomes clear that what is at stake is more than one man's guilt. For on San Piedro, memory grows as thickly as cedar trees and the fields of ripe strawberries - memories of a charmed love affair between a white boy and a Japanese girl who grew up to become Kabuo's wife; memories of land desired, paid for, and lost. Above all, San Piedro is haunted by the memory of what happened to its Japanese residents during World War II, when an entire community was sent into exile while its neighbours watched. 517 $aSnow Falling on Cedars 676 $a813.54 700 $aGuterson$b David$01449505 702 $aPigott-Smith$b Tim$4oth 906 $aAUDIO 912 $a9910148873903321 996 $aSnow Falling on Cedars$93647845 997 $aUNINA
