•在一部关于现代母亲身份、移民和身份认同的强有力的处女作中,一名怀孕的中国女性在加州要求实现美国梦。“完全吸收。-Celeste Ng•“第一部小说的奇迹。奥普拉杂志•“年度最让人大开眼界的文学冒险。”——《娱乐周刊》被《华盛顿邮报》评为年度最佳书籍之一——陈思嘉(Scarlett Chen)和其他准妈妈们躲在洛杉矶的一家秘密产房里,她远离家乡中国,在那里的一家工厂工作,爱上了已婚的老板杨老板。现在她怀着他的孩子。为了确保他的孩子——他的第一个儿子——拥有一切优势,杨老板把斯嘉丽送到美国国土上生孩子。在等待孩子降生的过程中,思嘉与专横的室友们争吵起来。唯一一个更不适应的是黛西,一个精神饱满的怀孕少女,她与她的美国男友分开了。然后,斯嘉丽的宝宝的超声波图显示了意想不到的事情。 Panicked, she goes on the run by hijacking a van—only to discover that she has a stowaway: Daisy, who intends to track down the father of her child. The two flee to San Francisco’s bustling Chinatown, where Scarlett will join countless immigrants desperately trying to seize their piece of the American dream. What Scarlett doesn’t know is that her baby’s father is not far behind her. A River of Stars is a vivid examination of home and belonging and a moving portrayal of a woman determined to build her own future. Praise for A River of Stars “Vanessa Hua’s story spins with wild fervor, with charming protagonists fiercely motivated by maternal and survival instincts.”—USA Today “A River of Stars is the best of all worlds: part buddy cop adventure, part coming-of-age story and part ode to female friendship.”—NPR “Hua’s epic A River of Stars follows a pair of pregnant Chinese immigrant women—two of the more vibrant characters I’ve come across in a while—on the lam from Los Angeles to San Francisco’s Chinatown.”—R. O. Kwon, author of The Incendiaries, in Esquire “A delightful novel of motherhood and Chinese immigration . . . Without wading into policy debates, Ms Hua dramatises the stories and contributions of immigrants who believe in grand ideals and strive to live up to them.”—The Economist
