商品簡介
商品簡介
Voices of Angel Island is a historical and literary anthology of the writings of immigrants detained at Angel Island, designed to provide a conduit for readers today to connect with early 20th-century perspectives on the process of “becoming American.”
The Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay has been called the “Ellis Island of the West,” but its purpose was quite different. It was primarily a detention center, established in large part to discourage immigration by Asians. The station barracks contains an extraordinary archive: hundreds of poems and prose records in half a dozen languages are on the walls, inscribed by immigrant detainees between 1910 and 1940, and by P.O.W.s and “enemy aliens” during World War II. Charles Egan draws on over a decade's work deciphering the wall inscriptions by Japanese, Chinese, Korean, European, and other detainees to assemble a selection of their writings in this book, alongside literary materials from Bay Area ethnic newspapers. While each inscription tells the story of an individual, taken together they illuminate historical, economic and cultural forces that shaped the lives of ordinary people in the early 20th century.
