About Tranplants:

On a university campus in rural Qixian, Lin and Liz make an improbable pair: Lin, a Chinese student closer to her menagerie of pets than to her peers, and Liz, a Chinese American teacher grieving her mother's sudden death. They're each met with hostility--Lin by her classmates, who mock her for dating a white foreigner; Liz by her fellow English teachers, who exploit their privilege--and forge an unlikely friendship.

After a startling betrayal that results in Lin's expulsion, they swap places. Lin becomes convinced to pursue her degree at a community college near Liz's Ohio hometown, while Liz searches for answers as to what drove her parents to leave China before she was born. But when a global catastrophe deepens the fissures between modern-day China and an increasingly fractured United States, Lin and Liz--far from home and estranged from themselves--are forced to confront both the familiar and the strange in each other.
