Bruce Hall (1)Reseñas

As the subtitle indicates, this is a family memoir of Chinatown -- written by Bruce Edward Hall, a fourth-generation Chinese American.

His book shows a great flair for language and story-telling. Although it is a non-fiction account of his life -- and how it is entwined with that of his family and Chinese Americans throughout the past -- it packs all the power of a well-constructed novel.

A must-read for anyone with a taste for the history of New York or an interest in the Chinese American experience.½
