书中对四位移居美国的中国女性的命运以及与她们在美国出生的女儿之间的心理隔膜及文化冲突描写的非常出色。另外,书中展示的既有两种文化也有两代人之间的冲突,抛开文化差异,与国内普通的母女之间的关系也有共通之处,能够强烈地引起读者共鸣,这大概也是这本书打动我的另一...

评分 评分看到这本书是因为一个很偶然的机会。我所在的小镇的图书馆和一个鼓励美国人读书的组织联合举办这本书的座谈会。这条信息在图书馆的网站上登了出来,正好被我看见了。看了看介绍,是一本中国的第二代移民写的书,居然在美国的畅销书榜上常胜不衰,而且被全美的读书协会推荐为必...

Amy Tan’s beloved, New York Times bestselling tale of mothers and daughters. Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read. Four mothers, four daughters, four families whose histories shift with the four winds depending on who's "saying" the stories. In 1949 four Chinese women, recent immigrants to San Francisco, begin meeting to eat dim sum, play mahjong, and talk. United in shared unspeakable loss and hope, they call themselves the Joy Luck Club. Rather than sink into tragedy, they choose to gather to raise their spirits and money. "To despair was to wish back for something already lost. Or to prolong what was already unbearable." Forty years later the stories and history continue. With wit and sensitivity, Amy Tan examines the sometimes painful, often tender, and always deep connection between mothers and daughters. As each woman reveals her secrets, trying to unravel the truth about her life, the strings become more tangled, more entwined. Mothers boast or despair over daughters, and daughters roll their eyes even as they feel the inextricable tightening of their matriarchal ties. Tan is an astute storyteller, enticing readers to immerse themselves into these lives of complexity and mystery.

评分男权社会渗透于女性意识深层的自我贬低排斥,自我抹杀的传统观念,是一种集体无意识。在这样的观念之下,她们自然永远无法达到母辈的要求,也无法正视原本的自我。母女们的悲欢故事大部分都是以沉默和打破沉默这条主线编织起来的,沉默已经变成了一个象征,它那巨大的毁灭性力量摧毁着女性赖以生存的自尊,自信和勇气,使她们在沉重的压抑之中丧失生存的能力。然而一旦打破沉默,这毁灭性的力量就会立刻消失,被压抑已久的人性就将得到复苏,平衡和谐的关系就会得到恢复。年轻一代的女性从母亲身上汲取了精神的营养与力量,以积极乐观的态度面对新的生活。是小说的结尾处吴晶梅在母亲去世之后代表母亲去大陆寻找她失散多年的双胞胎姐姐一幕所象征的。

评分无论是否被评论家们称之为迎合外国人的口味而写作,谭恩美确实在写她眼中的中国人,语言情绪到位不做作。写女人间的媚态、旧中国甚至有些愚昧的传统,还有移民潮下个体如何对待中西文化的矛盾,年轻一代又如何处理自己的尴尬的身份以及与父辈的代沟。语言上原版比中译本精致很多,读起来饶有味道,中译本反倒显得生硬和矫揉。
评分买了本盗版书看完了,没有电影那么丰富多彩,中华文化元素无疑是本书的大卖点,母女关系是全人类的烦恼,与不朽之作还有一定距离。
