UConn Co-op Where Readers and Authors Meet

Jamie Ford’s debut novel, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter And Sweet, was published by Ballantine in January 2009 and quickly became a national bestseller. Kirkus Reviews calls the book “[a] timely debut that not only reminds readers of a shameful episode in American history, but cautions us to examine the present and take heed we don’t repeat those injustices.” The Seattle Times called the novel, “A wartime-era Chinese-American variation on Romeo and Juliet.” Ford is the recipient of the Clarity of Night Short Fiction Award. Co-sponsored by SLAAM (Asian American Cultural Center), the Aetna Chair of Writing, the Asian American Studies Institute, and Creative Writing.
