A review by vventi
The Joy Luck Club, by Amy Tan

4.0

this was required reading for school but i actually really enjoyed it.

it illustrates the mother-daughter relationship and the differences between cultures quite well. it has a realistic and authentic portrayal of chinese culture and discusses the logic behind the traditions and superstitions that the older generations of chinese people practice. it also reminds me of the relationship between my mom and my grandma lol
