The Joy Luck Club - Poche

A brilliant first novel, The Joy Luck Club is the story of four mothers and their first-generation Chinese-American daughters; two generations of women stuggling to come to terms with their cultural identity. Tan writes from the heart, cutting sharp edges with wit, wisdom and a gentle and delicate precision. From the wealthy homes of pre-Revolutionary China to downtown San Francisco and the age of AIDS, the novel covers a remarkable spectrum and reveals the private secrets and ghosts that haunt, torment - and comfort.
Completely compelling.
