520    "Grass is a powerful anti-war graphic novel, offering up 
       firsthand the life story of a Korean girl named Okseon Lee
       who was forced into sexual slavery for the Japanese 
       Imperial Army during the second World War - a disputed 
       chapter in 20th century Asian history. Beginning in Lee's 
       childhood, Grass shows the leadup to World War II from a 
       child's vulnerable perspective, detailing how one person 
       experienced the Japanese occupation and the widespread 
       suffering it entailed for ordinary Korean folk. Keum Suk 
       Gendry-Kim emphasizes Lee's strength in overcoming the 
       many forms of adversity she experienced. Grass is painted 
       in a black ink that flows with lavish details of the 
       beautiful fields and farmland of Korea and uses heavy 
       brushwork on the somber interiors of Lee's memories."--
