The book received a Goodreads Choice Award, nominee for Readers' Favorite Historical Fiction and Nominee for Readers Favorite Debut Novel, both in 2025. Is "an epic and intimate tale of one couple across sixty years as world events pull them together and apart, illuminating the Chinese diaspora and exploring what it means to find home far from your homeland."
