‘Manzanar’ is a story of the joy and tragedy of America blended with our intrinsic place in nature. Manzanar means ‘Apple Orchard’, where things magical and terrifying occur. With an intertwining link of apples and history, ‘Manzanar’ brings the epic of World War II to the modern forefront, to ponder, enjoy and act toward progress in peace. From a small orchard in Iowa to the horrendous Manzanar Japanese-American concentration camp in California, to a worldview of culture and disasters, Manzanar’ captures the joy and pathos of life’s roads. ‘Manzanar’ completes the trilogy of Dr. Wayne Williams’ epic essays, short stores and poetry describing the trail to sustainability within the metaphor of apple culture throughout the world interlinked with the humanity needed to complete the wonder of the struggle to civilization.
