Introduction

The Joy Luck Club", the characters usually seem to be fighting. Usually it's a Chinese mummy going for the throat of her daughter. The major disagreements in the book are caused by a clash of the strong willed Chinese, and revolutionary US natives cultures.

In “Eat a Bowl of Tea” Director Wayne Wang focuses on Chinese immigrants living in New York's Chinatown in 1949. For years, US natives immigration laws had not allowed women to enter the country with their husbands. But subsequent to World War II, this prohibition was elevated.

Point 1

In The Joy Luck Club", Waverly's mom, Lindo, is the proud parent of a youthful chess prodigy. She takes great pride in Waverly's success at the art of chess.
