- Abstract:
An essay is presented on the traditional Chinese beliefs mentioned in the novel "The Joy Luck Club." It notes how knowledge on traditional beliefs built a gap between the mothers and daughters in the novel. It cites that most daughters in the novel end up unable to understand the cultural reference of their mothers' words. Moreover, the article offers information about astrology which is considered to be the most essential element of traditional Chinese belief.
