De auteur concentreert zich op leven en werk van Amerikaanse schrijfsters van Chinese afkomst. Ze heeft daarbij vooral aandacht voor de grensoverschrijdingen tussen China en de Verenigde Staten, en dit zowel in de biografieën als in het literaire werk van deze schrijfsters. Deze studie vult een belangrijke lacune aan in de receptie van de Aziatisch-Amerikaanse literatuur.

Examining Calvino's literary experiments as a young artist in search of his narrative voice, Ricci explores the psychological and existential motivations intrinsically linked to the writer's need for textual and systemic patterning. I racconti contains some of Calvino's least-read works, yet these early stories address issues, present scenarios and generate a growing variation of themes that form the heart of Calvino's narrative discourse. Ricci points out that melancholy permeates Calvino's works—even at his most playful. He suggests that if Calvino's highest merit was his sense of wonder and his urge to transform and defeat obscurantism with all the joy he could muster, one must remember that his work expressed, often painfully, the limits of human rationalism. I racconti can thus be read as a catalogue of the anxieties of both the young author and postwar Italian society.
