Tomi's father, Taro, is a fisherman who regularly goes out to sea on his boat, the\n    <i>\n     Taijyo Maru\n    </i>\n    ; his mother is a housekeeper for the Wilsons, a wealthy white family that allows the Nakajis to live in a small house on their land. Tomi goes to Roosevelt High School with his best friend and neighbor Billy Davis. Billy is the star pitcher on a neighborhood baseball team called the Rats, and Tomi is his catcher; their close friends Mose and Rico Corteles (who are cousins) are also on the team. Their arch-rivals are the Kaka'ako Boys, an all-Japanese American team. (Tomi is the only Japanese American on the Rats.)\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    Though there are hints of wartime tensions—in particular, Keet, the Wilsons' son, harasses the Nakajis—Tomi lives a happy if modest existence.

They order that his prized pigeons all be killed since they could be used to send messages. The family disposes of their Japanese objects and later learns that Taro has been arrested—and shot in the leg in the process—and that his assistant has been killed. Eventually, Tomi's grandfather is arrested as well. But through the darkness, Billy and his parents and the other Rats support Tomi and his family, and Tomi embraces the new responsibilities and difficulties he faces in\n    <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Martial_law_in_Hawaii\" title=\"Martial law in Hawaii\">\n     martial law\n    </a>\n    Hawai'i.\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    The novel is written in the first person voice of Tomi, and much of the dialogue reflects the Hawaiian Creole English (or \"pidgin,\" as it is popularly known) spoken by most island residents of the time.\n   </p>\n  </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Author_Background\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Author_Background\">\n    Author Background\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <p>\n    Author Graham Salisbury (1944– ) was born in Philadelphia, but mostly raised in Hawai'i, where his family has long roots going back to the early 1800s.\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref1_1-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref1-1\">\n      [1]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n    His father, Henry Forester Graham, was a naval officer who survived the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, but who was later killed when his plane was shot down in the Pacific on Graham's first birthday. Salisbury grew up on the windward side of O'ahu and also in Kailua-Kona and Kamuela on the Big Island where he boarded at Hawaii Preparatory Academy from the 7th grade. Taken by music at a young age, he pursued a music career in the 1960s, recording as part of the well-known Sunshine Pop band The Millennium and also as a solo artist under the name \"Sandy Salisbury.\" He also worked on a deep-sea fishing boat and as the skipper of a glass-bottom boat. He eventually went on to graduate from California State University, Northridge in 1974 with the intention of becoming a teacher. He cites a reading of Alex Haley's\n    <i>\n     Roots\n    </i>\n    \"which changed my live forever,\" inspiring him to become a reader and eventually a writer. After graduating with an M.F.A. from Vermont College of Norwich University in 1990, he published his first novel for young adults,\n    <i>\n     Blue Skin of the Sea\n    </i>\n    (1992) to great acclaim. It set the template for his future books in that it was set in Hawai'i and was a coming of age story with a teenage boy as protagonist intended for an audience of teenage boys.\n    <i>\n     Under the Blood Red Sun\n    </i>\n    followed in 1994.\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref2_2-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref2-2\">\n      [2]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    In writing about boyhood in Hawai'i, Salisbury draws on his own childhood there, which he describes as \"the most glorious childhood ever\" on the one hand, but difficult on the other.\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref3_3-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref3-3\">\n      [3]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n    He grew up fatherless, and his mother, Barbara Twigg-Smith \"was distant both emotionally and physically.\"\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref4_4-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref4-4\">\n      [4]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n    As he later wrote, there are \"many kids out there with holes in their lives that they desperately want to fill.... Strange as it sounds to say, I—as a writer—consider myself lucky, indeed, to have all the holes I have in my own life.

He wrote an entire draft of the novel from Billy's point of view, but thought it didn't work. He then started over, deciding to write it from Tomi's perspective. \"In the end, though, what I wrote was not so much about the attack on Pearl Harbor, or even about a Japanese family,\" he told Benton. \"What I wrote about was friendship, loyalty, honor, and courage.... I basically wrote about myself and the friends I grew up with.\"\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref6_6-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref6-6\">\n      [6]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    The success of\n    <i>\n     Under the Blood Red Sun\n    </i>\n    inspired him to focus on the Japanese American story in later books. As he acknowledges in a 2007 interview, the book had \"a rather open-ended ending\" that led to the emergence of \"new ideas.\" \"I didn't set out to focus on the Japanese-American experience from the Hawaii point of view,\" he said. \"But the power of their story, as it unfolded in my research, overwhelmed me.\" Salisbury's 2006 novel\n    <a class=\"external text offsite\" href=\"https://archive.org/details/houseofredfish00grah\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n     <i>\n      House of the Red Fish\n     </i>\n    </a>\n    is a direct sequel to\n    <i>\n     Under the Blood Red Sun\n    </i>\n    , while two other books,\n    <i>\n     <a class=\"encyc rg\" href=\"/wiki/Eyes of the Emperor (book)/\" title=\"Eyes of the Emperor (book)\">\n      Eyes of the Emperor\n     </a>\n    </i>\n    (2005) and\n    <i>\n     <a class=\"encyc rg\" href=\"/wiki/Hunt for the Bamboo Rat (book)/\" title=\"Hunt for the Bamboo Rat (book)\">\n      Hunt for the Bamboo Rat\n     </a>\n    </i>\n    (2014) center on other Japanese American protagonists during World War II.\n    <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_reff7_7-0\">\n     <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_reff7-7\">\n      [7]\n     </a>\n    </sup>\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    Salisbury lives and works in Oregon, but returns to the island frequently to conduct research and to see friends and family.\n   </p>\n  </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Historical_Accuracy\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Historical_Accuracy\">\n    Historical Accuracy\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <p>\n    In telling the Nakajis' story, Salisbury references many aspects of Japanese American history, and most are accurately rendered.

Many Issei who had the means returned to Japan to marry, and a fair number of Issei migrated as families. Many Issei men also married older Nisei women after coming to Hawai'i.\n   </p>\n   <p>\n    There are also some inaccuracies in the depiction of internment. Tomi's father is held in an internment camp on\n    <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Sand_Island_(detention_facility)\" title=\"Sand Island (detention facility)\">\n     Sand Island\n    </a>\n    , and is sent with other Japanese internees to a camp in the continental U.S. shortly after New Year's day, 1942 (214). But the first such transfer from Sand Island did not take place until February 21, 1942. Later, in early February 1942, we learn that Tomi's father has been taken to the\n    <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Crystal_City_(detention_facility)\" title=\"Crystal City (detention facility)\">\n     Crystal City\n    </a>\n    , Texas camp (229). But Crystal City did not open until November 1942 and the first Japanese Americans didn't arrive there until March 1943. Furthermore, as a camp built for internee families, Tomi's father would not have been sent there.\n   </p>\n  </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Response\">\n  <h2>\n   <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Response\">\n    Response\n   </span>\n  </h2>\n  <div class=\"section_content\">\n   <p>\n    <i>\n     Under the Blood Red Sun\n    </i>\n    received uniformly positive reviews and won many awards and honors.
