This book chronicles the five-generation journey of the Miwa family, who migrated from Hiroshima to Honolulu but never fully settled. Their story explores the complex meaning of "home" as they lived transnationally, with ties to both Japan and America. The family faced significant challenges, including internment, prisoner exchanges, the atomic bomb, and the loss of property on both sides of the Pacific. The narrative begins and ends with Stephen Miwa, a fifth-generation descendant seeking to understand a family reputation for being "unlucky.". The research traces the family's history from its founder, Marujiro, through subsequent generations, detailing their rise from poverty to wealth and subsequent falls.
