This is a love story between two childhood friends, Lily Zhang and Li Ling, who were thrown together and then tore apart by the evil force of the Cultural Revolution, the most horrifying ten-year terror in the modern history of China. When the Revolution ended, they ran into each other again at the university. Even though their love rekindled and intensified, the fate continued to tear them apart until Lily was forced to transfer, and Li Ling left the country for United States. Eighteen years later, Li Ling receives a letter from his lover that would certainly turn his life in a quiet seashore New England town upside down.
