Abstract

Murakami's article on positioning in reconciliation narratives accurately portrays the way in which a former POW reformulates his identity and his past and reconciles with his time as a POW and the Japanese who held him. Through further analysis of the narrative provided, along with an additional narrative of reconciliation from the Rwandan Genocide, this commentary will reflect on the multiple positions that continually interact to create one's identity, the role of the collective culture in this process, and the ambiguity inherent in reconciliation.
