Boston Progress Arts Collective welcomes Ed Lin to the East Meets West Bookstore for a special reading. Ed will read from his latest novel, This Is a Bust.

Ed Lin is the author of Waylaid. Published by Kaya in 2002, Waylaid was universally praised in a broad range of publications including Booklist, Asianweek and Playboy. Waylaid was named to Booklist’s Editors Choice 2002 list and also won the Members’ Choice Award from the Asian American Writers Workshop in 2003. Waylaid was made into the movie “The Motel” (2005) by Michael Kang.

This Is a Bust, Lin’s second novel, was published by Kaya in December 2007 to a pre-publication starred review in Booklist. A few copies of both books will be available for purchase.
