About this book

In Kyoto in 1948, Noriko Kamiza is left with grandparents whose aristocratic expectations make her mixed heritage a source of shame. Her mother is Japanese and her father an African American serviceman. Known as Nori, she learns obedience and isolation inside the family estate. This historical coming of age story begins with a child trying to understand the rules that determine her place in the household.

Fifty Words for Rain started as high school writing in the Washington, D.C. area, and its opening chapters are that teenage draft almost untouched. The story follows Nori, born in the 1940s to a Japanese aristocrat and an African American serviceman, then hidden away by relatives who will not acknowledge her.
