Story
In eight incantatory sections, The Buddha in the Attic traces the extraordinary lives of young Japanese brides, from their arduous journey by boat, where they exchange photographs of their husbands, imagining uncertain futures in an unknown land; to their arrival in San Francisco and their tremulous first nights as new wives; to their backbreaking work picking fruit in the fields and scrubbing the floors of white women; to their struggles to master a new language and a new culture; to their experiences in childbirth, and then as mothers....

Story
On a sunny day in Berkeley, California, in 1942, a woman sees a sign in a post office window, returns to her house, and matter-of-factly begins to pack her family's possessions. Like thousands of other Japanese Americans, they have been reclassified virtually overnight as enemy aliens, and they are about to be uprooted from their home and sent to a dusty internment camp in the Utah desert.

Story
The swimmers are unknown to one another except through their private routines (slow lane, medium lane, fast lane) and the solace each takes in their morning or afternoon laps. But when a crack appears at the bottom of the pool, they are cast out into an unforgiving world without comfort or relief.

Story
Una voce forte, corale e ipnotica racconta la vita straordinaria di un gruppo di donne - le cosiddette "spose in fotografia" - partite dal Giappone per andare in sposa agli immigrati giapponesi in America, a cominciare dal loro primo, arduo viaggio collettivo attraverso l'oceano. È su quella nave affollata che le giovani, ignare e piene di speranza, si scambiano le fotografie dei mariti sconosciuti, immaginano insieme il futuro incerto in una terra straniera.

Ein sonniger Frühlingstag im Jahr 1942, Berkeley, Kalifornien. Am Postamt liest die Mutter den Evakuierungsbefehl, geht nach Hause und beginnt die wichtigsten Habseligkeiten der Familie zusammenzupacken. Wie Zehntausende weitere japanischstämmige Amerikaner in den Westküstenstaaten betrachtet man sie als Sicherheitsrisiko, seit die USA mit Japan im Krieg stehen.

Story
"Auf dem Schiff waren die meisten von uns Jungfrauen." So beginnt die berührende Geschichte einer Gruppe junger Frauen, die Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts als "picture brides" von Japan nach Kalifornien reisen, um japanische Einwanderer zu heiraten. Bis zu ihrer Ankunft kennen sie ihre zukünftigen Männer nur von Fotos, und auch sonst haben sie äußerst vage Vorstellungen von Amerika... Aus eindringlicher Wir-Perspektive schildert Julie Otsuka ergreifend die unterschiedlichen Schicksale der Frauen.

Story
Postordrebrudene er en gribende beretning om de japanske kvinders usædvanlige liv: fra den lange skibsrejse på nederste dæk fyldt med forestillinger og drømme om fremtiden i det ukendte land, ankomsten til San Francisco, mødet med deres tilkommende og den skræmmende bryllupsnat, til det hårde arbejdsliv som frugtplukkere og stuepiger, kampen for at tilegne sig et nyt sprog og en ny kultur, fødsler og opfostringen af børn - helt frem til krigen og den december dag i 1941, hvor kvinderne og deres familier udpeges som forrædere.

Story
Nageurs et nageuses de cette piscine que tous appellent "là en bas" ne se connaissent qu'à travers leurs routines et petites manies, et les longueurs, encore, encore. Ils y viennent à heure fixe pour se libérer des fardeaux de "là-haut". Alice, tout spécialement, trouve un grand réconfort dans sa ligne de nage. Et puis un jour, une fissure apparaît au fond, dans le grand bain, en préfigurant d'autres, celles de son cerveau. Pour elle, l'inéluctable fermeture résonne comme un clap de fin.

Story
In ihrem Schwimmbad fühlen sie sich zu Hause, hier können sie bei ihren täglichen Bahnen ihre Sorgen hinter sich lassen: Designer, Nonnen, Hundesitter, Veganerinnen, Polizisten, Professorinnen, Schauspieler... Bis eines Tages ein Riss erscheint – am Beckengrund, aber auch im Gedächtnis von Alice, die genau wie die anderen hier im Schwimmen stets Trost und Halt gefunden hat.
