Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of 1938 Shanghai, the narrative uncovers the establishment of the first "comfort station" by Japanese Imperial Forces, marking the beginning of a network of brothels across Asia. Through previously unavailable documents, George Hicks reveals the systematic recruitment of women, often minors, and the extensive cover-up by the Japanese government. The book highlights the efforts of feminist groups to expose these atrocities, providing a poignant platform for the victims to share their harrowing experiences and the broader implications of racial and gender politics in Japan.
