Book Review
The “Joy Luck Club” illustrates the difficulty between a mother and daughter relationship. The novel does not solve all problems in the story, but brings hope to the characters as they work through their problems, learning from their relationship. Mothers and daughters of all ethnicity will appreciate the heartache, miscommunication, and unconditional love that flows within the novel.
Honestly this book was fun to read. The book goes in depth of the four ladies and their struggle. The four ladies pour out the sorrow of their lives they left behind, due to the war. It shows how the daughters must figure out how to navigate their own lives, drawing on what the have learned from the Old World mothers and their American childhood. I would recommend this book to read, since many people can relate to Amy Tan’s fictionalized characters. Most of our families are immigrants, who left behind their loved ones in order for their future generation to have a better life. Along the way many old costumes were lost, but others were gained. I know plenty of people who haven’t seen their families for around 30 years, both experience heartache and the yearning to be back home. This book just shows you the difficulty of their lives, who everyone has experience.
