Title: Shameless rehashing
Review: Amy Tan could be such a delicious storyteller but she sticks to the same theme because it has so far proved to be a commercial goldmine for her. At least, that's my guess because there is no other explanation. Still, after her three similarly-themed books, I thought and hoped that she would write something new. Especially when for five or six years we didn't see any new offer from her. But was I disappointed!It's not even worth going into the book, because it's like rereading The Kitchen God's Wife. It's as if Amy Tan convinced herself that her readers want to be fed the same old stuff again and again. Her new book is nothing but a shameless rehasing.
