of pre-schoolers to adolescents over his six-decade tenure as a priest. Much of the information surrounding Nakayama's abuse comes from Joy Kogawa's novels, where Kogawa draws from her life experiences with Nakayama and with the internment as major plot elements to create elegant, semi-fictionalized narratives. From The Rain Ascends and Gently to Nagasaki Kogawa makes sexual abuse and her struggle with her father's legacy a central focus. Nakayama was also, himself, a victim of child sexual assault.
