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. Nearly forty years later, one of the members has died, and her daughter has come to take her place, only to learn of her mother's lifelong wish and the tragic way in which it has come true. The revelation of this secret unleashes an urgent need among the women to reach back and remember. 508 $a Produced by Michael Viner. 651 0 $a San Francisco (Calif.) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Female friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers $x Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $x Societies and clubs $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Chinese Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Chinese American women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and daughters $z United States $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $z China $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 700 1 $a Yeo, Gwendoline. 941 $a 3 945 $a cdab 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314031429.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418075015.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812070513.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=46CA255C6BF411DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
