Hongo, Garrett Average customer rating: Chasing Ghosts from an Invented Past Mislabled as a memoir of Hawaii, it's a spiritual odyssey Volcano: A Memoir of Hawai'i Garrett Hongo Manufacturer: Vintage ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items: Running in the Family ASIN: Release Date: Book Description Part memoir, part Japanese American family chronicle, part luminous work of natural history, Volcano tells what happened when Hongo returned to his birthplace in Hawai'i, as a young man, to reclaim its dreamlike landscape and his own elusive past. A magnificant evocation of heritage and place. Customer Reviews: Chasing Ghosts from an Invented Past Hongo delights us with his poetic voice and I was expecting big things with this memoir. But doesn't a 'memoir' mean you've spent some meaningful time in a locale and are a bit of an expert on it? Hongo left Hawaii for California at a young age and knows little if anything about the history of the aina. His spiritual angle on looking at a leaf, stream, or hardened lava flow is somewhat interesting but the book lacks any meaningful punch because there is little or no characterization. I was expecting him to reconnect with people from his childhood but there are none. He is chasing ghosts from an invented past and the writing suffers for it. Mislabled as a memoir of Hawaii, it's a spiritual odyssey
