Properties Of Thirst by Marianne Wiggins
Set against the backdrop of World War II, this evocative narrative explores the intricate dynamics of family, love, and resilience in the face of adversity. The story unfolds on a sprawling ranch in California, where the lives of its inhabitants are irrevocably altered by the establishment of a Japanese internment camp nearby. As the war rages on, the characters grapple with their own personal battles, confronting themes of identity, loyalty, and the thirst for justice and understanding. Through richly drawn characters and a vivid sense of place, the novel delves into the complexities of human relationships and the enduring impact of historical events on individual lives.
