The Joy Luck Club is a book that touches the heart. It is the story of a small group of
women who have immigrated to the
United States from China. The book details each of these
women's life stories, and in an intimate way the reader learns Chinese
history firsthand through the sorrows and joys of these women's memories as they experience war, poverty, sorrow, love, arranged marriages and adapting to the new American culture. If you love history and want a good read, I would recommend this book.
