The White Goddess

Leah was born in April 2310; her grandmother gave her the nickname "Spring Dragon Lily." Her skin was white and thin as paper, and her eyes, red.   
She slipped painlessly from her mother's womb, like a bar of soap. The family gaped as she emerged, though they had known for months of her condition. Her father cradled her in his arms and wept over her. Her mother stared, speechless.

Book Review: The Joy Luck ClubI've been hearing about The Joy Luck Club, debut novel of Chinese-American writer Amy Tan, for most of my life. I've read almost half a dozen samples of her work throughout my schooling, most of them excerpts from Joy Luck itself. A month ago, after reading an essay of Tan's called Mother Tongue in my AP English class, I finally decided to throw down the gauntlet and read her book.   
This isn't the kind of work I normally read. Putting aside my normal diet of cyberpunk and dystopian fiction and moving into the strange uncharted lands of modern literary fiction (uncharted to me at least; I don't watch Oprah) seemed awkward, even fri Book Review: The Joy Luck Club
