 | Woman warrior : memoirs of a girlhood among ghosts Author: Kingston, Maxine Hong | |
| Price: $13.12 | ||
Summary:
As a girl, Kingston lives in two confounding worlds: the California to which her parents have immigrated and the China of her mother's "talk stories." The fierce and wily women warriors of her mother's tales clash jarringly with the harsh reality of female oppression out of which they come. Kingston's sense of self emerges in the mystifying gaps in these stories, which she learns to fill with stories of her own.
