We begin by finally taking the educator out from behind the desk and bring them to the table to share in the decisions and solutions regarding what is happening in our schools. It is time to part the curtains on our public school system and show you the villains, the heroes, the talented, and the not so talented.

Through contemporary writers' testimonies, essays, fiction, and poetry, Lopez-Calvo constructs an account of the cultural formation of Japanese migrant communities. With deftly sensitive interviews and comments, he portrays the difficulties of being a Japanese Peruvian. Despite a few notable examples, Asian Peruvians have been excluded from a sense of belonging or national identity in Peru, which provides Lopez-Calvo with the opportunity to record what the community says about their own cultural production. In so doing, Lopez-Calvo challenges fixed notions of Japanese Peruvian identity. "The Affinity of the Eye" scrutinizes authors such as Jose Watanabe, Fernando Iwasaki, Augusto Higa, Doris Moromisato, and Carlos Yushimito, discussing their literature and their connections to the past, present, and future. Whether these authors push against or accept what it means to be Japanese Peruvians, they enrich the images and feelings of that experience. Through a close reading of literary and cultural productions, Lopez-Calvo's analysis challenges and reframes the parameters of being Nikkei in Peru. Covering both Japanese issues in Peru and Peruvian issues in Japan, the book is more than a compendium of stories, characters, and titles. It proves the fluid, enriching, and ongoing relationship that exists between Peru and Japan. 606 $aJapanese$zPeru$xEthnic identity 606 $aJapanese$zPeru$xIntellectual life 606 $aPeruvian literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aJapanese in literature 607 $aPeru$xEmigration and immigration$xHistory 615 0$aJapanese$xEthnic identity. 615 0$aJapanese$xIntellectual life. 615 0$aPeruvian literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aJapanese in literature. 676 $a305.8968/85 700 $aLopez-Calvo$b Ignacio$01130828 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969475503321 996 $aThe affinity of the eye$94481284 997 $aUNINA
