Set in Seattle during World War II and the 1980s, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet follows Henry Lee, a Chinese American boy who forms a deep friendship with Keiko Okabe, a Japanese American girl. Their bond is tested when Keiko and her family are sent to internment camps following the attack on Pearl Harbor. Decades later, Henry, now a widower, discovers items belonging to Japanese families in the basement of the Panama Hotel, prompting him to revisit his past and the memories of his first love. Jamie Ford's debut novel is a poignant tale of love, loss, and the enduring power of memory.
