    How 'The Joy Luck Club' highlighted the complicated dynamics of immigrant families


Connecting across generations can be tough, even in the same family. This is at the heart of Amy Tan’s 1989 novel The Joy Luck Club. This week, we’re bringing you an episode from NPR’s Books We Loved series, where our very own B. A. Parker, along with Andrew Limbong and The Indicator’s Wailin Wong, discuss how miscommunication and misunderstandings between parents and their children continues to be a theme in stories of immigrant families today.

You can listen to more Books We Loved in the Book of the Day podcast feed.
