Snow Falling On Cedars In the book, Snow Falling on Cedars, by David Guterson. There are two characters that are different from one another, but in many ways are actually similar. The characters Kabuo Miyamoto, and Ishmael Chambers are different from each other but at the same time are parallel characters. Both experienced being in World War 2, loved a woman, Hatsue Imada, and can’t forget past memories. Kabuo Miyamoto meets Hatsue Imada, in a Japanese internment camp when World War 2 begins. Kabuo finds himself in love with Hatsue and goes to where she is staying as many times and as long as he can and, “gaze at her while she was shaking her hair.” Hatsue finds that Kabuo would make the perfect husband her family had always wanted her to be with and soon marries him and lets go of the fact that she had a relationship with a man, by the name of Ishmael Chambers. Since the war started Ishmael Chambers, a white man, had to see Hatsue, his secret child hood love leave him to go to the internment camps.
