Their struggles, assimilation, love, family and service to this beloved new land are reflected in soul-warming stories that capture readers'hearts.
本书是美籍华裔作家牧童歌谣的新作，作者以细腻的笔触、犀利的视角和跌宕起伏的情节，书写了一幅中国大陆留学生在美国寻梦的画卷。
二十世纪九十年代初，在美国中西部的一座高等学府，有一群来自中国大陆的优秀学子。那是一群不是蛟龙不过江，拉着两个皮箱，口袋里揣着五十美元闯美国的年轻人；那是一群从清贫和苦读中脱颖而出，进入美国高等学府的年轻人。
大学附近有一所叫北月的房子里住着五个中国男留学生。不远处的一所叫枫园的房子里住着四个中国女留学生。这九个年轻人经历了留学生涯的奋斗、异国他乡的爱情、异域教子的艰辛和喜乐、祖辈和后辈间中西文化的转换和传承、职场的甜酸苦辣以及家庭的变故和重生，在美国生根发芽、开花结果，人到中年绽放出了别样的风采、别样的绚丽。
他乡故乡，回首如梦。作品唤起了中年一辈人的青春记忆，也激励着年轻一代在海外寻梦的历程。
