Synopsis
A young Korean girl named Regret becomes the mail-order bride to a cruel Hawaiian plantation owner in the early years of the 20th century. Alan Brennert's lush drama vividly captures the triumphs and hardships of the uniquely diverse people (natives, Asians, and Westerners) who lived together on the islands in the years before Hawaii became part of the United States. HONOLULU will appeal to readers looking for a rich evocation of history and place, and to those drawn to the landscapes of the human heart.
Industry Reviews
"To its core, HONOLULU is meticulously researched...[I]n mooring [a] familiar character to the unique history of early-20th-century Hawaii, Brennert portrays the Aloha State's history as complicated and dynamic -- not simply a melting pot, but a Hawaiian-style 'mixed plate'"
