少有的想要擺脫中美種族歧視(雖然不可避免地還是在文中有所體現),把重點從種族轉移到信念、愛情等宏大主題的華裔美國文學作品。故事講得生動又具體,兩條綫相輔相成,雖說是關於陰陽眼的,卻不讓人畏懼,反而讓人心生嚮往。最值得贊揚地,是Amy Tan對於中國陰陽眼的描述,她不是把它看成一種迷信,而把它轉換成瞭信念、希望與愛情。值得一看、值得深思的一本書。
評分This is not my favorite Amy Tan book. I thought the story a little cliche and the main character not as strong as main character of her other stories. But until I read to the very end, I felt something special indescribable about the stories. Tan's storyline are all very similar, but she will always surprise you in the end.

From Publishers Weekly
Tan's novel of the conflicts between two very different Chinese American sisters spent 12 weeks on PW's bestseller list.
From School Library Journal
YA?Olivia, the narrator of this story, was born to an American mother and a Chinese father. She meets her 18-year-old Chinese half sister, Kwan, for the first time shortly after their father's death. Kwan adores "Libby-ah" and tries to introduce her to her Chinese heritage through stories and memories. Olivia is embarrassed by her sibling, but finds as she matures that she has inadvertently absorbed much about Chinese superstitions, spirits, and reincarnation. Olivia explains, "My sister Kwan believes she has Yin eyes. She sees those who have died and now dwell in the World of Yin..." Now in her mid-30s, Olivia, a photographer, is still seeking a meaningful life. The climax of the story comes when she and her estranged husband Simeon, a writer, go to China on assignment with Kwan as the interpreter. In the village in which she grew up, Kwan returns to the world of Yin, her mission completed. Olivia finally learns what Kwan was trying to show her: "If people we love die, then they are lost only to our ordinary senses. If we remember, we can find them anytime with our hundred secret senses." The meshing of the contemporary story of Olivia and the tales Kwan tells of her past life in late-19th century China may confuse some readers. Although this story is different from Tan's previous novels because of the supernatural twist, YAs will find some familiar elements.?Carol Clark, R. E. Lee High School, Springfield, VA
