上世纪80年代，伴随着移民大潮的涌起，中国新移民经历的那些难忘岁月中的那些难忘的事：陪读、打工、从头学本领、拿学位、争出头，东、西方之间奔走，以及他们所经历的心灵挣扎：婚姻、家庭、选择职业，确立身份，然后安定下来。安定之后再张望，张望中，再启程......历经千山万水，跨越千沟万壑，对有些人来说，彼岸的人生目标，依然犹如地平线，始终与自己保持着一个恒定的距离。
可以说，所有从移民大潮过来人经历过的，所有只当故事讲、只当故事听的那些事，郎莉一桩桩一件件，全都经历过了，如果说有什么不同，那就是她英年失去了丈夫。相比而言，在所有新移民队伍里，本书作者的心灵创伤及痛苦，达到了更深重的程度。
面对重重人生难题，郎莉不仅没有倒下，反而通过自身毅力的发挥和顽强拼搏，重新走出一条人生之路。这种独特的、勇往直前的拼搏精神，某种意义上讲，不仅锤练了自己的毅力，塑造了自己的性格，还丰富了自己的心灵世界，最终构成其投入文学创作的精神底蕴。
这本书记录了她在异域奋斗的全过程。作者虽然主要写在温哥华卖房过程中的所见所闻，但出场人物众多，线索枝枝蔓蔓，虽是个人经历的叙述，却映衬出大时代的姿容。
