Today’s free book is a brand new trade paperback. Published in 2007, 219 pages. Here’s the synopsis from B&N–
With a deceptively simple yet graceful style, and in the tradition of Lara Vapnyar, Jhumpa Lahiri, and Gish Jen, Frances Hwang captures the thousand minor battles waged in the homes of immigrants—struggles to preserve timehonored traditions or break free of them, to maintain authority or challenge it, and to take advantage of modern excesses without diluting one’s ethnic identity.

I’ve read Jhumpa Lahiri, and she is great.
