Jamie Ford is the New York Times bestselling author of HOTEL ON THE CORNER OF BITTER AND SWEET, which was an IndieBound Next List selection, and a Borders Original Voices pick.

Jamie is the great grandson of Nevada mining pioneer Min Chung, who emigrated from Kaiping, China, to San Francisco in 1865, where he adopted the western name "Ford," thus confusing countless generations. An award-winning short-story writer, Ford is an alumnus of the Squaw Valley Community of Writers and a survivor of Orson Scott Card's Literary Boot Camp. Having grown up near Seattle's Chinatown, he now lives in Montana (where he's on a never-ending quest to find decent dim sum).

Visit him at www.jamieford.com, where he can be found blogging about his next book, WHISPERS OF A THUNDER GOD, among other things.

Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet 电子书读后感

评分☆☆☆☆☆

我一辈子走过许多地方的路，行过许多地方的桥，看过许多次数的云，喝过许多种类的酒，却只爱过一个正当最好年龄的人。亨利和惠子的故事，大致如此吧一场战争影响了很多人的生活，很多人的生活轨迹也发生了变化。那些相遇和分开的背后，是温情，是儿时的怦然心动，深刻动人。

这几天看完了《悲喜边缘的旅馆》，这一本是在非常偶然的情况下从图书馆的书架上选择而来的，就像遇到了一段神奇的缘分。书名文艺首先就脱离不了，而后翻开扉页时，读起来并不生硬的翻译，以及看到作者自己本身就是半个中国人时，就更加想要去看完它。在前言里，其中打动自己...

Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书图书描述

Henry Lee is a 12-year-old Chinese boy who falls in love with Keiko Okabe, a 12-year-old Japanese girl, while they are scholarship students at a prestigious private school in World War II Seattle. Henry hides the relationship from his parents, who would disown him if they knew he had a Japanese friend. His father insists that Henry wear an "I am Chinese" button everywhere he goes because Japanese residents of Seattle have begun to be shipped off by the thousands to relocation centers. This is an old-fashioned historical novel that alternates between the early 1940s and 1984, after Henry's wife Ethel has died of cancer. A particularly appealing aspect of the story is young Henry's fascination with jazz and his friendship with Sheldon, an older black saxophonist just making a name for himself in the many jazz venues near Henry's home. Other aspects of the story are more typical of the genre: the bullies that plague Henry, his lack of connection with his father, and later with his own son. Readers will care about Henry as he is forced to make decisions and accept circumstances that separate him from both his family and the love of his life. While the novel is less perfect as literature than John Hamamura's Color of the Sea (Thomas Dunne, 2006), the setting and quietly moving, romantic story are commendable.—Angela Carstensen, Convent of the Sacred Heart, New York City
