Explanation:

Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club" is about a Chinese descent American trying to accept her multi-cultural identity. The book also deals with themes of life for an immigrant, preserving one's heritage and culture while also trying to incorporate the new culture of the adopted nation.

Jing-Mei Woo's story is about her mother's flight from China and marrying her second husband. She had overcome extreme grief- losing her first husband and two daughters. But America presented her a new chance of life and that's what she was trying so hard to do. She also tried to incorporate her zeal for a better life in America in her daughter Jing-Mei, who at times felt suffocated by her mother's efforts and pressures. One instance of her mother immersing her family into the American culture is the presence and reading of American magazines such as "Ripley's Believe It or Not or Good Housekeeping, Reader's Digest.." Her choice of taking such American stories as examples to encourage and teach her daughter about the need to better show how much she's trying to make Jing-Mei know the culture and atmosphere of the country they've adopted.
