Amy Tan’s new book
19th October 2005
One of my favorite authors have just had her latest book, Saving Fish from Drowning published. I read Tan several years ago, and got hooked on her string of novels, The Joy Luck Club, Kitchen God’s Wife, The Hundred Secret Senses and The Bonesetter’s Daughter. Saving Fish from Drowning is a departure from her other books which have a semi-autobiographical and based in either China or Chinese American contexts. In this work, Tan based her story in what is now known as Myamar with a hope of exposing to the world what a repressive country it really is. I hope this leads to a day, not too far away, when Aung San Suu Kyi is finally released and the repressive government is either overthrown or reformed.
