二十世紀的中國,從腐敗的滿清政府開始,辛亥革命,中華民國建國,隨即軍閥割據,抗日戰爭,國共內戰。外侵內患而造成國家社會的大動亂,幾乎佔了整個世紀。
我的父母和姐弟五人,就是生長在那個國家多難,社會不安的時代。後來除了姐姐和她的家人之外,很幸運的,我們逃脫了中國大陸,在上個世紀中期史無前例的政治迫害,及社會不安的浩劫。但是我們的父母也被迫地,離開了中國大陸,連根拔起,流亡海外。當時我們所渴望的,是在安定的環境中成長。而我們父母畢生追求,而沒法達成的奢望,竟是簡單的家人團聚! 我的父母就是懷著『有家歸不得』,和『家人無法團聚』的雙重思念和感受,飲恨終生。於一九七○年代先後在台北和在美國謝世的。
我們姐弟,因為年齡的差別,我們一生的經歷就迥然不同。在時代潮流的巨浪中,各人走出一條生路,努力地奮鬥了一生。這本書『漂萍』是記述一個很平凡的中國家庭的真實故事。就是因為平凡,我們家的故事,是在報章雜誌中,和歷史書上找不到的。可是我們這些升斗市民的親身經歷的故事,是可以充分反映出當時的時代背景。足以值得記下來,留給在海外生長的後代子孫。
