Deputy Public Affairs Officer Jeffrey Arnold, Leonard Chang and U.S. Consul General Peter W. Bodde
|
October 22, 2005. Frankfurt Consul General Peter W. Bodde welcomed Korean-American author Leonard Chang and friends of the Consulate at the U.S. Embassy's Book Fair booth. Chang read from his 2004 novel "Fade to Clear" and discussed his approach to writing in a Q&A session with the audience. His first novel, entitled The Fruit 'N Food, was published in 1996 and is now taught at colleges around the country. His third, Over the Shoulder(Ecco/HarperCollins, 2001), appeared to wide acclaim and introduced the character Allen Choice, who is also the focus of Underkill (St. Martin's Minotaur/Dunne, 2003). Allen Choice returns in the new Fade to Clear (St. Martin's, 2004), which is garnering some of the strongest reviews of Leonard's career.
