Features: This is a series of stories about Chinese people struggling in the United States, telling their emotions, families, and careers, and also offering a glimpse into the culture, lives, and ways of thinking of Americans. Regardless of how humans are categorized, they ultimately fall into two genders. Whether it's the "Adam and Eve" in religious "creationism" or the "male and female apes" in scientific "evolution," both speak of the earliest ancestors of humans being divided into two sexes. What do men want? What are they doing? What do women want? What are they doing? What do men and women together want? What are they doing? This is where the true essence of life lies. Without this "essence," all glory would fade, and neither the past nor the present, nor the future, would exist. The thirty short stories in this collection ofliterature are selected by the author from a large amount of "case material" and are representative. They offer a literary portrayal and description of various Sino-American romantic, love, and sexual relationships from different perspectives.
