A best-selling novel and also a major motion picture. Family bonds transcend history as four young Chinese American women and their Chinese-born mothers struggle to understand each other. When the children's present lives begin to mirror their parent's past accomplishments and failures, a seemingly un-crossable divide grows into a bridge as generation unite to form THE JOY LUCK CLUB.
