Set in Seattle during its tech boom in 1999, the narrative explores the lives of immigrants navigating the complexities of American culture. Tom Janeway, a Hungarian-born Englishman, critiques societal norms through his NPR commentary, while Chick, a resourceful illegal alien from China, hustles to survive. Their intertwined stories reflect themes of identity, belonging, and the contrasting realities faced by those seeking a new life in a rapidly changing city.
