The photograph below was taken by Ansel Adams as was the photograph of Toyo Miyatake. The guard tower was one of 10 surrounding the Manzanar internment Camp where the Miyatake family and thousands of others were interned.
LOVE, SARAH AND THE ENORMOUS QUESTIONS

Yesterday I began reading the newest issue of Poets and Writers. A description of Valeria Luiselli’s work states, “grapples with enormous questions about immigration, incarceration and the invented spaces of language and identity, not by dwelling on the answers but by telling stories as a way to better ask questions.”
WOW! My topics are different, but I identify with the description of the means to get at enormous questions.not “by dwelling on the answers but by telling stories as a way to better ask questions.” Hope I did that well. It could be a good book club discussion topic.
