Oceans and decades apart, two women are inextricably bound by the secrets between them.
Japan, 1957. Seventeen-year-old Naoko Nakamura’s prearranged marriage to the son of her father’s business associate would secure her family’s status in their traditional Japanese community, but Naoko has fallen for another man - an American sailor, a gaijin - and to marry him would bring great shame upon her entire family. When it’s learned Naoko carries the sailor’s child, she’s cast out in disgrace and forced to make unimaginable choices with consequences that will ripple across generations.
America, present day. Tori Kovac, caring for her dying father, finds a letter containing a shocking revelation - one that calls into question everything she understood about him, her family and herself. Setting out to learn the truth behind the letter, Tori’s journey leads her halfway around the world to a remote seaside village in Japan, where she must confront the demons of the past to pave a way for redemption.
In breathtaking prose and inspired by true stories from a devastating and little-known era in Japanese and American history, The Woman in the White Kimono illuminates a searing portrait of one woman torn between her culture and her heart, and another woman on a journey to discover the true meaning of home.

The story captured my attention and held it. I listened to it straight through!
As history shows, the time of this story both sides handled things badly.
I cried at the end.

And here is the one thing that just...stung me: the Ending. I will not spoil anything, but suffice it to say do not expect a happy ending. It is thematically appropriate and well written of course, but the ending still felt like a gut punch to me, and truth be told I go back and forth debating if I would have gotten the book if I knew just how it would all end.
That is Not me saying stay away though. If you are ok with sad endings and are prepared for an emotional roller coaster, then this book is no doubt for you. The narrators do an amazing job, the pacing is great, and i look forward to future books from the author.
Overall, 4/5 seems like a fair assessment. I hope you enjoy if you decide to purchase.
Amazingly told, if Sad and Dark Story
