Ha Jin\'s new novel

A Free Life is Jin's first novel set in America, and might be, as Ron Charles points out in his review for Book World, his most autobiographical. It not only explores the world of a recent Chinese immigrant (Jin moved to the U.S. in 1985), but also examines his protagonist's desire and struggle to write in the language of his new home.
