SNOW FALLING ON CEDARS

Snow falling on cedars is the first novel written by American writer David Guterson. I have been studying this novel since three weeks ago. It is very interesting and very exiting. The novel set on San Piedor island. It talks about the murder case of Kabuo Miymoto, a Japanese-American accused of killing Carl Heine and his trial.


The character from this novel who I well talk about is Ishmael Chambers. Ishmael Chambers is the local reporter of San Piedro. He was a man of thirty one. He is a tall man with the eyes of an ex-soldier. He lost his arm in the war. Ishmael Chambers was un happy and un comfortable. He loves Hatsue Miyamoto but no body respects his love.

I see you picked out the most important features to describe Ishmael. Good job. What about his relationship with his father?
