How a huge book can end up such a short audio is beyond me. Obviously, they cut a ton out. But the essense is there...the true heart and soul. This is another mother and daughter story, but one of the most beautiful I've ever read, watched, listened to. Granted, I've read the book numerous times and watched the movie even more, and loved them. Every word of this book kept me interested, hating to turn it off, why couldn't it be longer.
Chinese mothers, and their Chinese-American daughters, their stories floating generation to generation, from China to American. Heartbreaking, uplifting, funny. Read by Amy Tan herself. I highly recommend this book.
