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).

Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

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

我一輩子走過許多地方的路,行過許多地方的橋,看過許多次數的雲,喝過許多種類的酒,卻隻愛過一個正當最好年齡的人。 亨利和惠子的故事,大緻如此吧 一場戰爭影響瞭很多人的生活,很多人的生活軌跡也發生瞭變化。 那些相遇和分開的背後,是溫情,是兒時的怦然心動,深刻動人。

評分

故事以二戰時期美國的日裔集中營為背景。豐富的人物形象,在1942和1986兩條時間綫間穿梭,講述從年少到白發,甜中又多苦澀的動人故事。“The hardest choices in life aren't between what's right and what's wrong but between what's right and what's best”。

評分

一年前讀過,記憶猶新。好喜歡這本書的整體基調,故事情節,和作者的文筆。很感動,也很壓抑,讀完之後心裏沉甸甸的。

Just a simple romantic story.

評分

二戰期間,經曆日裔公民 internment 的華裔男孩與日裔女孩間的言情故事。背景挺有內涵,故事也不錯,可是不知怎麼覺得有點單薄。
