THE NEWHOUSE CENTER FOR THE HUMANITIES AT WELLESLEY COLLEGE PRESENTS:

Born in China in 1956, Pulitzer nominated author Ha Jin was a teenager when China entered the Cultural Revolution. He became a member of the People’s Liberation Army at the age of fourteen. His novel Waiting, which won him the National Book Award in 1999, and the PEN/ Faulkner in 2000, was based on his experiences during his five-year service in the Red Army. He was awarded the PEN/ Faulkner again in 2005 for War Trash. His latest book, A Map of Betrayal, was published in 2014.

Ha Jin visited Wellesley to read from his work and speak at the Newhouse Center for the Humanities on March 30, 2015.
