Jamie Ford is the author of "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet," a critically acclaimed debut novel set in Seattle's Japantown in the 1940's. Amid the chaos of blackouts, curfews, and FBI raids, a young Chinese boy and a Japanese girl forge a bond of friendship and innocent love that transcend the long-standing prejudices of their Old World ancient ancestors.
