I just finished The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan, which I really enjoyed. I was glad I recently read Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chan, because it gave me a good understanding about the times the mothers from The Joy Luck Club lived in China and their motivation to leave and move to the US. And it also gave me a good understanding about their (probable) upbringing, which explains why they behave the way they do and are so different from their daughters.
