In March 2001,Amy Tan had her new novel The Bonesetter′s Daughter published. It consists of three parts, within which Mother Daughter Relationship serves as a main theme, while the issues of the cultural differences, the identities and the barrier of emotional communication between the two generations function as the main power, pushing forward the plot. By digging up the memory, by skillfully weaving together history and truth, memory and imagination, the writer successfully re presented the miserable history of the three women in a Chinese immigrant family. Superficially, the book seems to be an autobiography of the writer herself and a record of a Chinese immigrant family struggling to survive in the foreign land, yet the reader can find the truth behind the fabrication and see the whole situation of the Chinese immigrants from an individual case. The novel is not only the representation of writer′s tense relationship with her mother, but also the real portrayal of thousands of immigrant mothers who are struggling to survive in the new land. It is a retrospection of the friendly relationship of the two countries, and what′s more, the author′s sincere wish for the future relationship of the two nations.
