Query: A must read

Like another reviewer, I too picked up this book thanks to an interesting cover and once I started reading, I could not put it down. The author has done something unique and deeply memorable in the way she spins a story and the messages in it from the unique perspective of a young girl raised in Japan by a U.S. Air Force family during the Cold War. I was reminded of Chaim Potok's "The Chosen" in how she describes the corrosive but strengthening impact of children being raised in silence and in closed worlds, and the craziness and humor of the Cold War with characters more vivid than even those in "Dr. Strangelove" and "The Manchurian Candidate." I hope to see this book on high school book lists and a movie very soon.
