About this listen

For decades, a quartet of Chinese women who have emigrated to San Francisco gather to eat dim sum, play mahjong, and talk—they call themselves the Joy Luck Club. Over the years, their stories have informed the lives of four daughters who feel the weight of family and world history on their shoulders. With wit and sensitivity, this novel explores the deep, complicated, and sometimes painful connections between mothers and daughters. Amy Tan entices listeners to immerse themselves into the complex lives of these women.

Enjoyed the narration but story wise it did not do much to inspire or excite me. The characters also did not resonate much with me, the younger generation of American Chinese being too rebellious of the older generation and the older generation Chinese women too archaic. I felt there were too many loose ends with the story also. Overall a very mediocre experience.

story is very ordinary

Really great interconnected stories of Mothers and Daughters. A beautiful narration and great characters. Must listen and read by everyone to get an share of perspective of Chinese culture.
