5.0 out of 5 stars
Great reading!,
By Crouchmaster (Orange, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sweet Bamboo: A Memoir of a Chinese American Family (Paperback)
I heard about this book because one of the author's progeny mentioned it to me. This book gave me a real sense of what being Chinese in America -in particular in Los Angeles - was like. In reading this book, I could see the particular personality of "Papa" reflected in my friend. It's been a few years since I read this book, but the part that I remember in particular are the "painful" walks with "Papa" that the daughter described. It struck a cord with me because of my own experiences in communicating across the generations. Such experiences are felt across all cultures.

OUTSTANDING BOOK, SINCE I AM A AMERICAN CHINESE...I CAN FEEL ALOT FOR
THIS STORY...PLUS I GREW UP IN CENTRAL LOS ANGELES...KNOWING WHERE ALL THE LOCAL LOCATIONS WERE. MY FATHER AND MOTHER WERE BORN HERE IN THE US...SO PART OF THE STORY WAS VERY INTERESTING TO ME. |
