Mr Shinozaki writes with perception and humour without attempting to conceal the harsh realities of the situation. His story is ... always distinctively personal ... a valuable source of material for all who are interested in a period which not only marked the effective end of colonialism in Singapore, but which also prompted in prototype so many of the features of a new and vitally dynamic city-state which was to become present-day Singapore.-- H.E. Wilson, University of British Columbia
Mr Shinozaki has freely mentioned names, dates and place ... The whole story is to me a truthful and unvarnished account of the conditions and the life in Singapore during the Japanese occupation.
--Dr Yap Pheng Geck
