The author brought humanness to the internment camps. I found her characters very believable. Her weaving of historical fact and fiction was very creative. I couldn’t put the book down. Good job!
I pre ordered this book as it has been myMost anticipated read of 2019! Came on the day it came out!!! Yes!!
Very well written and researched.
Susan Meissner’s latest novel, “The Last Year of the War†is set against the backdrop of World War II, but it could easily be written about today’s plight of immigrants around the world.Elise Sontag Dove is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. She knows the dark pall is rapidly descending upon her, taking everything—and everybody---she has loved. Before it’s too late, Elise wants to find her friend, Mariko, whom she hasn’t seen since their families were housed near each other in an American-government sanctioned internment camp in Crystal City, Texas, in 1943-1944.Through a series of fortunate events, Elise locates her friend who is now living in San Francisco. Will her disease rob her of her friend before she can see her again? Elise doesn’t know, but it’s urgent that she see her as soon as possible.As Elise makes her way to meet her friend, she recalls growing up in Davenport, Iowa. Her parents had emigrated from Germany twenty years earlier. Although they were registered aliens, they had never applied for citizenship. They always thought there would be time. Davenport, Iowa, is not exactly a hotbed of Nazi sympathizers, but fear of the German war machine is racing across America. Suddenly, Elise’s father, Otto, is arrested and sent to an American-government internment camp. Elise is stunned but not quite as stunned as when her friends and their parents begin to shun the Sontags.Otto requests, and is granted, relocation to a family internment camp in Crystal City, Texas. There she meets the Japanese-American girl, Mariko. The two become best friends, planning a future move to New York to become journalists after the war is over and they turn eighteen.That dream dies when the families are pulled apart. Elise and her family are sent back to Germany while Mariko and her family are sent to Japan. Neither country is a welcome place in the middle of a world war. The girls are forced to stop having contact with each other, but Elise has never forgotten her friend.“The Last Year of the War†is a fascinating look at fear of people who might be different than you and the unbreakable bonds of friendship. The dueling timelines, one of my favorite plot structures, is well done. I would estimate that ninety percent of the book takes place from 1943 on, which gives readers an opportunity to get to know Elise as she was before the Alzheimer’s begins to rob her.It does drag a bit in the middle. That is the reason “The Last Year of the War†receives 4 out of 5 stars in Julie’s world.
As soon as I found out that Ms. Meissner had a new novel coming out, I was very excited to receive an arc to review. I’ve been looking forward to this one. I’m sorry to say that I was disappointed.This is a 3* mainly because I learned some history, liked the last ¼ of the book but then didn’t like the very ending :( does that make any sense to you. I think part of the strength of As Bright As Heaven was definitely in it’s well described characters and of course the Spanish flu epidemic and mystery surrounding the baby, all of those things were "action" for me. There was so much that happened to the characters and I also felt that they “grew†as a family throughout the novel.This book was such a slow starter that I almost put is aside for a while, it dragged with very little going on with the characters, just some interaction at the Camp and of course her meeting with Meriko. I was at 50% on my Kindle before there was even anything that was keeping me reading. I did have some knowledge of German Americans being interned during the way, partially because I live in a suburb of Milwaukee which had a very large German population, especially during that time period. This was also mentioned in another book I read about internment camps.This book finally kicked in for me when they were sent to Germany and I really enjoyed the last 1/4 of the book. I wish so much that there had been this level of emotion in the rest of the book.I don’t want to give away any of the interesting parts of the book because I know readers will be looking forward to this but I will say that when she came back to the US I started to feel as though I understood more of Elise’s character. I cared more for her in that little part of the book than I had up until that time. Even to the end though I didn't feel the strong force of Elise and Mariko’s relationship, which initially I thought was the driving force of the book. I never felt a deep connection to Elise or any of the characters really, they all felt rather flat to me. By the end of the book I felt that the war itself was the strongest “character†in my opinion.There are many reviewers who loved this book but I can’t really recommend it and I feel badly for that. Ms. Meissner is a wonderful author and I will look forward to her future novels.I received an ARC of this novel through NetGalley.
