具体描述
The Joy Luck Club was formed of four Chinese women recently moved to San Francisco who meet to eat dim sum, play mah-jong and to share stories. Forty years on they and their daughters tell wise and witty tales of hope, loss, family and history. Spanning pre-Revolutionary China to 1980s San Francisco, the women talk as secrets are spilled, mothers boast and despair and daughters struggle with tangled truths.

东方的面孔,西化的思想,矛盾的中和,就是我们现在浮躁的每一张脸
喜欢这样的语言,克制持重,暗含深情~洋文再地道,骨子里的东方文化怎么抹得去呢~Moon Lady的故事着实感动了一把!
原文远远胜过译文
