Sandakan Brothel No8 Journey Into The History Of Lowerclass Japanese Women Yamazaki Tomoko by Yamazaki Tomoko, Karen Colligan-taylor (translation) 9781317460244, 9780765603548, 9780765603531, 0765603535, 0765603543, 1317460243 instant download after payment.

This is a pioneering work on "karayuki-san", impoverished Japanese women sent abroad to work as prostitutes from the 1860s to the 1920s. The narrative follows the life of one such prostitute, Osaki, who is persuaded as a child of ten to accept cleaning work in Sandakan, North Borneo, & then forced to work as a prostitute in a Japanese brothel, one of the many such brothels that were established throughout Asia in conjunction with the expansion of Japanese business interests. 

Yamazaki views Osaki as the embodiment of the suffering experienced by all Japanese women, who have long been oppressed under the dual yoke of class & gender. This tale provides the historical & anthropological context for understanding the sexual exploitation of Asian women before & during the Pacific War & for the growing flesh trade in Southeast Asia & Japan today. Young women are being brought to Japan with the same false promises that enticed Osaki to Borneo 80 years ago. 

Yamazaki Tomoko, who herself endured many economic & social hardships during & after the war, has devoted her life to documenting the history of the exchange of women between Japan & other Asian countries since 1868

She has worked directly with "karayuki-san", military comfort women, war orphans, repatriates, women sent as picture brides to China & Manchuria, Asian women who have wed into Japanese farming communities, & Japanese women married to other Asians in Japan.
