How We Disappeared by Jing-Jing Lee. Singapore, 1942: seventeen-year-old Wang Di is taken from her village by Japanese soldiers and forced into a military brothel. More than fifty years later, a twelve-year-old boy called Kevin overhears his dying grandmother's confession and starts pulling at a thread his family has kept buried.

A novel about the Japanese Occupation and the silence that followed it, by a Singaporean writer. Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction.

An adult title from my own shelves that I am clearing out. Please note it deals with wartime sexual violence.
