Saya sedang menikmati satu lagi sajian kreatif Ha Jin, A Free Life terbitan Vintage International (Januari 2009).
Entertainment Weekly edisi 26 Oktober 2007 memberikan gred A kepada novel ini.
Pengkritik buku, Jennifer Reese, yang mengulas A Free Life, antara lain, mencatatkan komentar berikut:
"... A Free Life is one of the most powerful novels of the year, a richly textured and quietly engrossing portrait of the artist as a Chinese immigrant marooned in suburban Atlanta." (Entertainment Weekly)
Sari rangsang (blurb) pada kulit depan pula mempamerkan ulasan yang dipetik daripada Los Angeles Times:
"Exquisite and resonant ... A ruminative, capacious, covertly ironic and quietly revealing tale of one family's pursuit of the American Dream."
