Young describes his struggles to adapt to a new culture, his experiences as a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and his eventual decision to pursue a career in music. He also discusses his involvement in the civil rights movement and his experiences performing with various musical groups.The third part of the book focuses on the author's experiences as a musician and music educator. Young discusses his work as a performer and composer, as well as his experiences teaching music to students of all ages. He also reflects on his life and career, and offers insights into the challenges and rewards of pursuing a career in the arts.Overall, Across The Borderline is a richly detailed and engaging memoir that offers a unique perspective on the experiences of a Chinese-American musician and educator.
