I had mixed feelings about this collection of stories based around the experiences of characters in China and in the U.S. I thought most of the stories were beautifully written and intricate, but others fell into romantic cliche or literary device, which made them less effective.

This book was complicated. But I liked it. The stories all connect- some are really obvious, some aren't. The last one was easily my favorite.
