Amy Tan always has a powerful pen. I enjoyed the keen observation with which she penetrated through space and time, countries and generations. But not very fond of the odd destinies of characters.

美國華裔女作傢,自1989年發錶成名作《喜福會》以來,早已超越瞭一位少數民族或者流行小說傢的身份,成為美國乃至於西方的最為著名的一流作傢之一。
In memories that rise like wisps of ghosts, LuLing Young searches for the name of her mother, the daughter of the Famous Bonesetter from the Mouth of the Mountain. Trying to hold on to the evaporating past, she begins to write all that she can remember of her life as a girl in China. Meanwhile, her daughter Ruth, a ghostwriter for authors of self-help books, is losing the ability to speak up for herself in front of the man she lives with and his two teenage daughters. None of her professional sound bites and pat homilies works for her personal life; she knows only how to translate what others want to say.
Ruth starts suspecting that something is terribly wrong with her mother. As a child, Ruth had been constantly subjected to her mother's disturbing notions about curses and ghosts, and to her repeated threats to kill herself, and was even forced by her mother to try to communicate with ghosts. But now LuLing seems less argumentative, even happy, far from her usual disagreeable and dissatisfied self.
While tending to her ailing mother, Ruth discovers the pages LuLing wrote in Chinese, the story of her tumultuous and star-crossed life, and is transported to a backwoods village known as Immortal Heart. There she learns of secrets passed along by a mute nursemaid, Precious Auntie; of a cave where dragon bones are mined, some of which may prove to be the teeth of Peking Man; of the crumbling ravine known as the End of the World, where Precious Auntie's scattered bones lie, and of the curse that LuLing believes she released through betrayal.
Like layers of sediment being removed, each page reveals secrets of a larger mystery: What became of Peking Man? What was the name of the Bonesetter's Daughter? And who was Precious Auntie, whose suicide changed the path of LuLing's life? Within LuLing's calligraphed pages awaits the truth about a mother's heart, what she cannot tell her daughter yet hopes she will never forget.
Set in contemporary San Francisco and in a Chinese village where Peking Man is being unearthed, The Bonesetter's Daughter is an excavation of the human spirit: the past, its deepest wounds, its most profound hopes. The story conjures the pain of broken dreams, the power of myths, and the strength of love that enables us to recover in memory what we have lost in grief. Over the course of one fog-shrouded year, between one season of falling stars and the next, mother and daughter find what they share in their bones through heredity, history, and inexpressible qualities of love.
算得上是谭恩美的一部个人风格非常强烈和经典的书吧.值得一看。里面关于母女关系的描写非常深刻而真切。
評分作者照。谭恩美。眉眼从容,笑颜慈爱,那种异国情调的美,恐怕是东方人西方人都要认为的“异国情调”。翻开这本书的第一页,第一行,我的心就揪紧了。 谭恩美的《喜福会》曾因华裔导演王颖的电影而广为人知。母女情愫是她最擅长的主题。事实上,这原本是任何一个女人都有深...
評分我想,再糟糕的亲子关系,当孩子某一天也成为了父母,就会渐渐懂得了自己的父母,也就最终会谅解之前与父母的一切。 书中的露丝真正试图去了解母亲,懂得母亲是在她发现母亲生病以后。我注意到露丝自己没有亲生的小孩,故事中的两个小女孩是她的男朋友与前妻的孩子...

評分睡不着爬起来,想写日记,发现很多东西放在心里沉淀了就没有好说的。 想起来今天看实验室新到的「周末画报」,新闻版的最后几页里居然有一页谭恩美的简短介绍和访谈,当时觉得很惊异,好好看了一遍,其中印象深刻的是她提到母亲一直教导她的人生观,她说了一段话,大意是你可...
