"A boy growing up in Japanese-occupied Taiwan in the 1940s will do anything to escape his tormenting family and reconnect with his first love in this compelling work of fiction." --O: The Oprah Magazine
"A stunningly pure and inspiring love story . . . Deeply compelling." --The Boston Globe
"Wu's debut novel is an appealing coming-of-age story packed with vivid historical detail." --The Christian Science Monitor
"Wu presents an alluring story that hits all the right emotional buttons and maintains readers' empathy from the first page to the last." --Kirkus Reviews
"You may have read other Asian American historical novels, but you've never read anything like Julie Wu's affecting and emotional The Third Son. It's one of the don't-miss books of the year." --Beth Fish Reads
"With great authority and skill, Wu depicts not just the grand events of the era, such as the Kuomintang (KMT)'s arrival in Taiwan and the brutal occupation that followed, but also the small, private moments of life . . . The Third Son should be the start of a very successful writing career for Julie Wu, and I hope she will not need long to write her next novel--I'm excited to read it." --Fiction Writers Review
After graduating from Harvard with a BA in Literature, magna cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, Julie Wu received an MD at Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons. She has received a writing grant from the Vermont Studio Center and won a 2012 Massachusetts Cultural Council fellowship. Her website is www.juliewuauthor.com.
