In Farewell to Manzanar, Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston and James D. Houston use a

variety of literary techniques in telling her story. Many of the discussion questions,

activities, and journal suggestions explore those techniques in greater detail.

Genre: The Houstons have described Farewell to Manzanar as a “web of stories tracing a few paths, out of the multitude of paths that led up to and away from the experience of the internment.” In structuring the book in this way, they suggest that

Jeanne’s memoir is a part of a much larger story. Chapters that are printed in italics

reinforce this idea. Each depicts an event that the narrator could not possibly have

witnessed but that supports her experiences. That idea is also reinforced in the

teacher resource through a feature entitled “Historical Sidelights.” The feature provides information and questions that link Jeanne’s story to stories and experiences of

other Americans.

Theme: In the opening to the book, the Houstons reproduce two quotations (page

xiii) that introduce the central question of the book. The first is by historian Henry

Steele Commager. In 1947, he described internment as an unjust act that caused

“incalculable” misery and tragedy. The second is a Vietnamese poem that speaks of

life as leaving “footprints” on one’s forehead. Those footprints are wiped away only

by the cycle of birth and death. The story the Houstons tell is in effect a journey

through the pain of false accusations to the healing that time alone can bring. In a

sense that journey is much like those found in “coming of age” stories. In such

books, a youngster goes through difficult trials only to discover something new about

herself, people in general, or the world.
