Story
Alice is one of a group of obsessed recreational swimmers for whom their local swimming pool has become the centre of their lives - a place of unexpected kinship, freedom and ritual. Until one day, a crack appears beneath its surface. As cracks also begin to appear in Alice's memory, her husband and daughter are faced with the dilemma of how best to care for her. As Alice clings to the tethers of her past in a home she feels certain is not her home, her daughter must navigate the newly fractured landscape of their relationship.

Story
Una voce forte, corale e ipnotica racconta la vita straordinaria di un gruppo di donne - le cosiddette "spose in fotografia" - partite dal Giappone per andare in sposa agli immigrati giapponesi in America, a cominciare dal loro primo, arduo viaggio collettivo attraverso l'oceano. È su quella nave affollata che le giovani, ignare e piene di speranza, si scambiano le fotografie dei mariti sconosciuti, immaginano insieme il futuro incerto in una terra straniera.

Story
Ein sonniger Frühlingstag im Jahr 1942, Berkeley, Kalifornien. Am Postamt liest die Mutter den Evakuierungsbefehl, geht nach Hause und beginnt die wichtigsten Habseligkeiten der Familie zusammenzupacken. Wie Zehntausende weitere japanischstämmige Amerikaner in den Westküstenstaaten betrachtet man sie als Sicherheitsrisiko, seit die USA mit Japan im Krieg stehen.

Story
"Auf dem Schiff waren die meisten von uns Jungfrauen." So beginnt die berührende Geschichte einer Gruppe junger Frauen, die Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts als "picture brides" von Japan nach Kalifornien reisen, um japanische Einwanderer zu heiraten. Bis zu ihrer Ankunft kennen sie ihre zukünftigen Männer nur von Fotos, und auch sonst haben sie äußerst vage Vorstellungen von Amerika... Aus eindringlicher Wir-Perspektive schildert Julie Otsuka ergreifend die unterschiedlichen Schicksale der Frauen.

Story
Postordrebrudene er en gribende beretning om de japanske kvinders usædvanlige liv: fra den lange skibsrejse på nederste dæk fyldt med forestillinger og drømme om fremtiden i det ukendte land, ankomsten til San Francisco, mødet med deres tilkommende og den skræmmende bryllupsnat, til det hårde arbejdsliv som frugtplukkere og stuepiger, kampen for at tilegne sig et nyt sprog og en ny kultur, fødsler og opfostringen af børn - helt frem til krigen og den december dag i 1941, hvor kvinderne og deres familier udpeges som forrædere.

Story
Nageurs et nageuses de cette piscine que tous appellent "là en bas" ne se connaissent qu'à travers leurs routines et petites manies, et les longueurs, encore, encore. Ils y viennent à heure fixe pour se libérer des fardeaux de "là-haut". Alice, tout spécialement, trouve un grand réconfort dans sa ligne de nage. Et puis un jour, une fissure apparaît au fond, dans le grand bain, en préfigurant d'autres, celles de son cerveau. Pour elle, l'inéluctable fermeture résonne comme un clap de fin.

Story
In ihrem Schwimmbad fühlen sie sich zu Hause, hier können sie bei ihren täglichen Bahnen ihre Sorgen hinter sich lassen: Designer, Nonnen, Hundesitter, Veganerinnen, Polizisten, Professorinnen, Schauspieler... Bis eines Tages ein Riss erscheint – am Beckengrund, aber auch im Gedächtnis von Alice, die genau wie die anderen hier im Schwimmen stets Trost und Halt gefunden hat.
