Every story here is cut like a stone.\"--\"Chicago Sun-Times\"), National Book Award-winning Ha Jin gives us a collection that delves into the experience of Chinese immigrants in America. \u003cbr\u003eWith the same profound attention to detail that is a hallmark of his previous acclaimed works of fiction, Ha Jin depicts here the full spectrum of immigrant life and the daily struggles--some minute, some grand--faced by these intriguing individuals. \u003cbr\u003eA lonely composer takes comfort in the antics of his girlfriend's parakeet; young children decide to change their names so that they might sound more \"American,\" unaware of how deeply this will hurt their grandparents; a Chinese professor of English attempts to defect with the help of a reluctant former student. All of Ha Jin's characters struggle in situations that stir within them a desire to remain attached to be loyal to their homeland and its traditions as they explore and avail themselves of the freedom that life in a new country offers. \u003cbr\u003eIn these stark, deeply moving, acutely insightful, and often strikingly humorous stories, we are reminded once again of the storytelling prowess of this superb writer.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Pantheon","offers":[{"title":"Good Fall | Ha Jin | Hardcover | 9780307378682 | Used: Like New | Fiction 1622727","offer_id":48313173082264,"sku":"1622727","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71Aq0Ui3HqL.jpg?v=1773163117","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/good-fall","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
