THE JOY LUCK CLUB: Amy Tan

THE JOY LUCK CLUB

by Amy Tan

We brought this book back into the bookshop for those of you who may have missed it the first time around. Tan’s debut novel, and I believe her best, is filled with vignettes, mother-daughter angst and life-long friendships of the female variety. Set around the mah-jong table (I can almost hear the clickety-clackof those tiles), three women invite the daughter of their recently deceased fourth counterpart to take her mother’s place at the weekly gathering of the Joy Luck Club.  And so the story begins.
