In his first book of stories since The Bridegroom was published in 2000 ("Finely wrought . . . Every story here is cut like a stone."— Chicago Sun-Times ), National Book Award–winning Ha Jin gives us a collection that delves into the experience of Chinese immigrants in America.
With the same profound attention to detail that is a hallmark of his previous acclaimed works of fiction, Ha Jin depicts here the full spectrum of immigrant life and the daily struggles—some minute, some grand—faced by these intriguing individuals.
A lonely composer takes comfort in the antics of his girlfriend's parakeet; young children decide to change their names so that they might sound more "American," unaware of how deeply this will hurt their grandparents; a Chinese professor of English attempts to defect with the help of a reluctant former student. All of Ha Jin's characters struggle in situations that stir within them a desire to remain attached to be loyal to their homeland and its traditions as they explore and avail themselves of the freedom that life in a new country offers.
In these stark, deeply moving, acutely insightful, and often strikingly humorous stories, we are reminded once again of the storytelling prowess of this superb writer.
From the Hardcover edition.
Plain and attractive.
評分This collection is, as far as I'm concerned, below Ha Jin's average. What he wrote about the immigrant world in Flushing is more like a cliche than insight into the basic human condition that features his other masterpieces like "Waiting". Jin knows how to depict the human heart as it actually is, but this time, he chooses to do something else.

評分找不到閱讀的版本,找到一個免費的語音版本,聽完瞭英文的閱讀。這個短片集哈金沒有以中國為背景,故事都是發生在美國的紐約法拉盛,主角都是移民美國的中國人。
評分哈金很plain好像20世紀初英語翻譯文學的簡單語言,和flushing的移民,其實真是很般配的。故事很精彩,人工美女,婆媳關係,parenting ABC, long distance齣軌,小教授被逼瘋,怎麼像坑怎麼來。
