Fresh out of a long-term relationship, twenty-two-year old MariNaomi finds herself amidst a flurry of major life changes. Newly immersed in the pan-Asian diaspora of San Jose, California, half-Japanese Mari searches for connections to a culture that has so far eluded her. It doesn't take long for Mari to find new loves, and a new job--at a hostess bar for Japanese expats--in a bid to learn the language and culture. Turning Japanese follows Mari from Northern California to Tokyo, Japan, as she tries to get by in an unfamiliar city with rudimentary language skills--all in the hopes of finally connecting with her Japanese relatives without the use of her mother as a translator."--Back cover. 600 00 $a MariNaomi $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Cartoonists $z United States $v Comic books, strips, etc. $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Women cartoonists $v Comic books, strips, etc. $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Japanese Americans $v Comic books, strips, etc. $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Japanese Americans $x Ethnic identity $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Hostess clubs $v Comic books, strips, etc. 651 0 $a San Jose (Calif.) $v Comic books, strips, etc. 651 0 $a Tokyo (Japan) $v Comic books, strips, etc. 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Biographical comics. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Autobiographical comics. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Nonfiction comics. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Comics (Graphic works) $2 lcgft. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219011719.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230804010128.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010027.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8D30E89617D411EEB984481F40ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
