[11] As Reuters noted, the show was a "sort of Chinese counterpart to Sex and the City revolving around Chinese-Western culture clashes."

DeWoskin returned to the United States in 1999 and earned a master's degree in poetry from Boston University.

DeWoskin is also the author of five novels, Big Girl Small (FSG 2011),[4] Repeat After Me (Overlook 2009), Blind (Penguin 2014),[2] Some Day We Will Fly (Viking 2019) and Banshee (Dottir 2019).
