Although it is a product of its time, it is still a pinnacle work in depicting the lives of Asian women, and it is a tender portrait of the deep pain and love that is shared among mothers and daughters.

My goodness, I love this book. It is an anthology that knits together multiple mother-daughter relationships. There are so many themes and genres this book spans--stories that will stick with you, too. I adore it.
Please read it.
