Introducing a fresh, exciting Chinese-American voice, an inspiring debut about an immigrant girl forced to choose between two worlds and two futures.

When Kimberly Chang and her mother emigrate from Hong Kong to Brooklyn squalor, she quickly begins a secret double life: exceptional schoolgirl during the day, Chinatown sweatshop worker in the evenings. Disguising the more difficult truths of her life-like the staggering degree of her poverty, the weight of her family's future resting on her shoulders, or her secret love for a factory boy who shares none of her talent or ambition-Kimberly learns to constantly translate not just her language but herself back and forth between the worlds she straddles.

Through Kimberly's story, author Jean Kwok, who also emigrated from Hong Kong as a young girl, brings to the page the lives of countless immigrants who are caught between the pressure to succeed in America, their duty to their family, and their own personal desires, exposing a world that we rarely hear about. Written in an indelible voice that dramatizes the tensions of an immigrant girl growing up between two cultures, surrounded by a language and world only half understood, Girl in Translation is an unforgettable and classic novel of an American immigrant-a moving tale of hardship and triumph, heartbreak and love, and all that gets lost in translation.

人总是爱屈服于命运,但对于生活在“黑暗角落”的人们,往往却有不屈服于命运的斗志。他们的行为也最终改变了他们的命运。安于生活,只会让人变得平庸;敢于挑战生活,或许不能实现梦想,但至少我们走过。人生来都具有各自的特殊性,但是在不断生存的过程中,却慢慢的被大...

在没有读这本《中国女孩耶鲁梦》之前,我会觉得生活已经教会了我很多,给予的或是回馈的都算上不说是丰富多彩,我想也足以让许多人望尘莫及,我的生活甚是精彩,精彩到你想不到,猜不到,今生恐怕也遇不到。生活很残酷,唯有依靠的可能还是自己,还需努力。   先说这段话...
