In the novel ‘The Joy Luck Club,’ Amy Tan outlines the reality of Chinese immigrant’s lives through the perspectives of Chinese immigrant women and their daughters. The story begins after the death of an elderly Chinese woman Suyuan Woo, one of the founding members of the Joy Luck Club, who wished to reunite with her two lost daughters in China but was never able to. Since 1989, The Joy Luck Club has become one of the best selling books and was later turned into a movie. However, due to the lack of other Asian American narratives, this book remains important. Twenty-five years after it was written, teenagers have the opportunity to be exposed to Asian American culture, history, and spirituality through reading The Joy Luck Club in their classes.
