Tokyo to Tijuana: Gabriele Departing America by Steven David Justin Sills
"Tokyo to Tijuana: Gabriele Departing America" by Steven David Justin Sills is a novel likely written in the early 21st century. The narrative explores themes of identity, loss, and the search for belonging, centered around the character Sang Huin (or Shawn), a Korean-American navigating life and relationships in South Korea after a traumatic family history, including the murder of his sister and his father's suicide. The opening of the novel introduces Sang
Huin's deep sense of empathy and emotional turmoil as he reflects on his connections, friendships, and past traumas. The narrative shifts between his memories of family and the stark realities of his current life, illustrating his struggles with identity as both an American and a Korean. In a series of encounters, we see him grappling with his friendships, particularly with a friend named Yang Lin, as he wrestles with feelings of longing, confusion, and a sense of isolation in an unfamiliar land. The writing is dense with introspection, picturesque observations, and existential thoughts, setting the tone for Sang Huin's journey toward understanding himself and his place in the world.
