本书为“苏珊•桑塔格全集”一种，为美国全国图书奖、耶路撒冷国际文学奖获奖作品。小说以历史传记的形式重新演绎了波兰“舞台皇后”莫杰耶夫斯卡移居美国后完成自我变革与精神复苏的历程。 主人公玛琳娜在事业如日中天之时，与家人及一群追随者远涉重洋，栖居于美国西部蛮荒乡间，企图在傅立叶式的乌托邦社区中追求新生、重获救赎。但田园牧歌式的生活维系不久即告夭折。为渡过难关，玛琳娜克服语言障碍，开启了她红极一时的美国舞台生涯。作品展现了一幅绚烂的历史画卷，逼真描绘了十九世纪末到二十世纪初美国的历史环境、人物事件、社会风貌，以及波兰理想主义者所代表的欧洲悠久文明与粗野而又朝气蓬勃的美国这片新大陆文明之间的对撞，是历史细节与现代意识的有机结合。

本书以真实故事为题材，写波兰最著名的女演员赫莲娜．摩德洁耶夫斯卡在一八七六年移民美国的故事。一八七六年，波兰最伟大的女演员玛丽娜·札兰斯卡退出舞台，率领一群同胞，飘洋过海到加州建立他们的乌托邦公社。玛丽娜的儿子与丈夫随同在侧，护花使者中还有一个深爱她、刚窜起文坛的年轻作家。《在美国》描写拓荒时代时依然空旷的西部，在那里，他们的公社失败，多数成员返回波兰，但是玛丽娜留下来，在美国舞台大放光芒。 《在美国》是一本生动、令人惊喜的巨作，是桑塔格最迷人、最杰出的成就。

《在美国》是一部历史传记，主人公的原型是波兰裔著名演员海伦娜•莫德耶斯卡。莫德耶斯卡一八六八年在华沙崭露头角，一八七七年在旧金山主演《勒库弗勒》英文译剧，“虽英文很差，但仍十分成功”。她偶尔也到伦敦演出。波兰的理想主义者们购置农田，研究农事，开辟葡萄园，希望建立自己的种植园。经过几个月艰难而又美好的田园生活，牧歌式的乌托邦终因经营不善和内部分歧而夭折。一些人返回波兰，一些人转到另一社区，还有一些人在美国定居。为了渡过经济上的难关，玛琳娜顽强地克服了语言障碍，重返舞台。在从南到北、从城市到乡镇的巡回演出中，玛琳娜风靡美国，成为美国舞台上璀璨夺目的新星。故事在玛琳娜与布斯对人生和艺术的探讨中结束。
