A Free Life / by Ha Jin
Story of a Chinese immigrant family reunited in US after
1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and begins a new, free life in the United
States. The author brilliantly brings to life the daily struggles to survive and dream to successes that
characterize many Chinese immigrant experience. I feel inspired by Nan's (the main character of the story) aspirations
to poetry even under harsh living conditions. Long book but worth reading.
660 p.
