Features: A woman who crossed the ocean, two men who left an indelible mark, the War of Resistance, the Liberation, the Anti-Right Campaign, the Cultural Revolution—her fate was not of her own choosing; the waves of the times overturned her life. A beautiful Chinese-American, for the love of the man she cherished, she gave up her wealthy family and traveled thousands of miles to China. She experienced China's War of Resistance, the War of Liberation, the founding of the People's Republic, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Anti-Right Campaign, the Cultural Revolution, and the Reform and Opening-Up. She transformed from a bourgeois into a true member of the working class. However, when her youthful pursuit became reality, she woke up from a dream. As her life neared its end, looking back on the past, everything seemed as elusive as smoke.
