Ok, I admit it, I was obsessed with Amy Tan my first year of college. I learned all there was about her, read The Joy Luck Club, and finally I gave up hope.
As a freshmen, at Linfield College, I was astonished that Amy Tan could have possibly walked the same hallowed halls of Melrose, perhaps sat in the same offices in the English department, or read a book in Northrup's astro-turf room.
My daydreams were filled with her coming over to my dorm room to have tea and "talk literature." She would tel...more

After I read The Joy Luck Club (summer required reading before sophomore English in high school), I started pestering my mom about her abandoned children in mainland China. I also declared that I would name my two kids after the aforementioned abandoned children: Spring Flower and Spring Rain.

My mom laughed in my face about the latter, saying no self-respecting Chinese would give their kids such pedestrian names, and would be mock-pissed about the former.

The truth is that The Joy Luck Club got s...more

It kind of says something when I want to bounce ideas about the book I'm reading off my husband, and all I can think to say is, "meh, it's fine." (He's gotten quite used to having me talk about books he hasn't had a chance to read yet, and tends to have amazing insights anyway. And if he doesn't, I at least get to formulate my ideas out loud, which is always how I think best, and he listens patiently.)

Rating - The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan, 4 Sweets and the rich culture and beliefs of Chinese-American family. (A fast paced book and it was divided into short stories and lives of the characters. Recommended to everyone to those people who have no time to read. Simple and creative, a mixed Chinese-American culture book.)

The book started off with Jing-Mei Woo, who was asked to sit in as one of the four players in the Joy Luck Club. She was to replace her mother who had recently passed away. The Joy Luck Club consists of four women who played a common Chinese game, and base on what I have seen it is usually used for gambling. The Joy Luck Club is what develops the plot because it is where we get the stories of each of the women in it.

This book is separated into four sections. In all of these sections there would be a chapter where Jing-Mei Woo talks about her relationship with her mother. Each chapter in the first and last sections was about the three other women in the Joy Luck Club. It was written in their point of view. In these chapters they would talk about their past and their relationships with their mothers. Then they would talk about their relationships with their daughters. The next two sections were about the daughters of the three other women in the Joy Luck Club and they were written in their point of view. These chapters would be about their life and then about their relationship with their mothers. This is a weird way to write a book but it makes sense to write it that way so that we can hear the voices of each of these characters and their mother-daughter issues.

Throughout the book she would also include the pronunciation of Chinese words: “Yiding” meaning must. This was pretty interesting to me because as a Chinese person I did not understand more than half of it. The author also kept me reading probably because I personally am interested in these stories. A part of the book was about the history of China and people’s experiences back then. Jing-Mei Woo’s mother was force to give up her two children when the Japanese attacked China. She was walking to escape the Japanese with a lot of her belongings and her two children. First she was force to leave her belonging and then the food and then the children. Back then in China, the parents usually get to decide whom their child gets marry to and sometimes they decide even before the child was born. They would do this for the family’s benefit. Lindo Jong was sentenced to marry a boy she didn’t meet until she was about eight or nine. This is similar to most ancient Chinese movies I have seen, the women would then be married to the man, and then she would find a way to get the man to leave her. These stories interest me and it reminds me of those times when my mom would tell me about her stories.

Mothers and daughters and families losing and finding each other across cultural boundaries. There's enough material there for Amy Tan to write a thousand books.

Suyuan Woo has died and left an empty place at the mah-jongg table. Her daughter, Jing-Mei "June" Woo is invited to join the game, which her mother named the Joy Luck Club. There must always be four men and four women in the club, and Jing-Mei's father has chosen her to take his wife's place. Through her mother's friends An-Mei, Lindo and Ying-Ying, Jing-Mei comes to learn about her mother's life story and secrets she never told. Jing-Mei's journey of discovery weaves in and out of the story of the other three women and their daughters, An-Mei and Rose, Lindo and Waverly, Ying-Ying and Lena. The three "aunties" who sit at the other corners of the mah-jongg table bemoan the breakdown in communication with their American-raised daughters, who seem to have all misplaced their Chinese identity. Lena and Rose are lost souls in disintegrating marriages. Waverly does seem to want to reclaim some of her Chinese culture, but can't get over old anger and misunderstandings. Only Jing-mei is ultimately able to transcend the generational and cultural gap between the mothers and daughters. She sheds her American name, June, and becomes Jing-Mei at the beginning of the book when she is first invited to take her mother's place in the Joy Luck Club. She is something of an ambassador between the younger American-born generation and her mother's friends. Still, she is unable to understand the message An-Mei, Lindo and Ying-Ying are trying to communicate to her, until she finally asks her father to tell her about her mother. When Jing-Mei's father tells her what her Chinese name means, she finally grasps her mother's history and legacy.

"The Joy Luck Club" is a beautifully written book, but it's more than that. I was swept up in the language at times, but I never lost sight of the underlying story - four women struggling to leave their reluctant daughters their "life's importance." Although it's a story that focuses heavily on the influence of Chinese culture on mother-daughter relationships, any woman can relate to its lovely and powerful message.(less)

I thought that this book was really good. The way that it had shown the stories of the moms and daughters made me want to read more. This book kind of reminds me of Maxine Hong Kingston's "Woman Warrior" because of the chapters splitting into different point of views. The different stories of the 2 generations kept me interested. The beginning stories of Jing-Mei's Mother and herself were most appealing to me because it has the quote that stuck out to me the most out of the whole book, which was...more

This book is written in the form of eight vignettes, four from four different women (the mothers) and four from their daughters. This book concentrates on four Chinese American immigrant families that start this "club" for playing the traditional game of Mahjong. The story begins with June Woo who had just lost her mother to an aneurysm. She was chosen to replace her mothers seat in the club with the four other mothers. She always had a rocky and foreign relationship with her mother and through this club and her interactions with her mother's close friends, she unfolds the story that her mother had never had the opportunity to tell. Also, all the different narratives show the relationship between that of a mother and a daughter of the rest of the Joy Luck Club members. With these narratives unfold personal emotions and feelings that they have withheld from one another and gives all readers a inside depth understanding of the mindset of a parent and a child and sees the position of thought in both.

There were many themes throughout this book that I found to be interesting and personally touching. First of all, when I had first read the narratives of the mothers, I realized the difficulties of assimilation and adaptation to the "American Life". I had several flashbacks to what my childhood was like and what my parents had endured while immigrating the United States. Additionally, me being a first generation child in the US gave me an understanding of the daughters in Amy Tan's (the author) book. The daughters experienced a totally different life than their mothers and thus the drifting in connection between them begin to increase. But through June Woo and her listening to the women's stories about her mother and about themselves, she received an understanding of not only her mother, but of her own self and her identity.

I found this book to be an easy read and of importance to all those with immigrant families or had faced similar experiences because it is, in my perspective, one of the best written books surrounding the theme of cultural boundaries and immigration. (less)

My mom insisted I read The Joy Luck Club, but it was only after I saw it on the AP Lit reading list that I decided to concede to my mother’s request. And I’m glad I did because The Joy Luck Club is a beautifully written book that’s insightful without coming across as overly academic and stuffy.

While the book was not a page turner, I did care what happen to all the characters. It was very intriguing to know how all the mothers came to America and how their experiences shaped how the raised each of their perspective daughters. For the daughters it was more interesting to watch them try to navigate being Chinese and American. I did not get the feeling in the book that the mothers ever wanted to fit into American culture and that they did not really what their children to either. They wanted them to have Chinese values with American opportunity. While the daughters just wanted to be Chinese.

At times I felt myself siding with the daughters because to me it seemed that the mothers had no understanding of who their daughters were. It appeared that the mothers just wanted them to be obey all their wishing, sacrificing their own. I don't know if Tan did this on purpose but I is kind of confusing. Because some of the mothers hardship seems to come from just obeying and not thinking. And these women (the mothers) than expect their daughters to do the same thing.

What I really like about this book was the style that it was written in sometimes it was like reading a fairy tale (almost "Like Water for Chocolate") but more realistic. The imaginary was beautiful and caught my imagination quickly. I kept having this thought that I would love to see this as a foreign film where the whole thing has to be translated. I know that there is a movie, I even saw it years ago. But I don't remember the movie being as vivid as the book.

Another positive with this book is that with the daughters Tan was able to portray the idea of what it is like to grow up as a second generation immigrant. In this case not quite American but not quite Chinese. The daughters have to struggle with what their mother are trying to teach them about being Chinese, which often comes out like riddles, and what they think the should know about being American. The mothers and daughters struggle with this battle between being Chinese and being American. Almost like they can't do both.

One of the negatives I had was that the mothers sometimes came for as stereotypes. I think this is sometimes a problem when people of color try to write books that not only speak to their experience and culture but will also appeal to a wider audience.

Pros: Imagery, Characters, Stories, Internal Conflict
Cons: Stereotype Like Characters

What I liked:
- I really enjoyed seeing story lines and character relationships come together in the last third of the book.

- I like the idea of mother-daughter relationships represented.

What I didn't like:
- I don't enjoy waiting until the last third of a book to be interested. I really found the majority of this book pretty slow. And I'm totally okay with slow as long as it has some other redeeming value--great characters, great writing, great . . . anything. But it was really just slow for me.
- I found the characters confusing in a lot of ways. First of all, I think needing a character chart at the start of the book is a bad sign . . . if your characters are really well-developed and well-written, a chart probably shouldn't be necessary. But by the end of the book, I was still flipping back to the dang chart to figure out who was who, and still felt like I had no idea who the characters were, personality-wise. Not to mention the multiple radical 180-degree flips some of the characters performed with no warning or explanation whatsoever, that left me going, "Huuuuh?"
- I found the relationships frustrating. With a teensy exception at the very very end of the novel (seriously, like, last 3 sentences), it seemed like none of the mothers and daughters (or even husbands and wives or friends) understood each other or were capable of communicating with each other at all. And that bothered me, because I expected a book that was going to make me feel all warm and fuzzy about being a mom. I understand that this was supposed to show the cultural split between the Chinese born-and-bred mothers and American born daughters, but how sad that none of them could overcome that to have a real relationship.

Mostly, this book felt to me like something I would have been assigned to read in high school, written a 2-page report on, and never thought about again. It wasn't bad by any means, but, for me, it left a lot to be desired.(less)

This is one of those modern classics I never got around to reading until now. I preferred it to "Saving Fish From Drowning" though they both have their touching, sad, and darkly comic moments. I expected the plot to focus more on the club's actual meetings, but each chapter represents a new story about either a mother or daughter member's experience, either many years ago in China, or in the recent past as a Chinese-American immigrant in San Francisco (interestingly, the other Chinese-American b...more

My mom really wanted me to read this book, mainly because of it's emphasis on the classic mother-daughter relationship. But I saw it more as a reflection on the mother's life before her child and how it sort of affected how she raised her daughter later on. I never really saw the daughter (with the exception of June) learn about their mother and hold a new understanding of her. The most the other girls caught was a sort of toleration of their mother.
