Response to "Farewell to Manzanar" through non-fiction
As one is reading this story one can relate it to being non-fiction. the reason is because the story is non-fiction but she expresses her life throughout the whole story. The authour/narator, Jeanne Wakatsuki tells olf the truth of her life and that is what non-fiction is all about. Wakatsuki relates her life through the Japanese concentration camps during World War II as she is telling it through non-fiction. Her story was beatuifully written and anyone who gets the chance should read it. She tells it through her eyes and sometimes one can feel bad at other times it is like why is she tellling us this. This is because she is talking about her life and forming it into reality so maybe another individual could relate. That is what non-fiction is all about.

This is what I got out of the story so far as well. It is beautifully written and is most definitely nonfiction. It is her life story and is being told through how she saw it happen. That is what makes it a good nonfiction piece. Even though she was only 7 when all of this happened she was still able to vividly remember so much. It is a great book.
