Summary
Blending mythology and memoir, a first-generation Chinese-American woman recounts family stories of her California childhood within a traditional Chinese family.
Winner of the 1976 National Book Award
Throughout her childhood, Maxine Hong Kingston listened to her mother's mesmerizing tales of a China where girls are worthless, tradition is exalted, and only a strong, wily woman can scratch her way upwards. Growing up in a changing America, surrounded by Chinese myth and memory, this is her story of two cultures and one trenchant, lyrical journey into womanhood.
Complex and beautiful, angry and adoring, Maxine Hong Kingston's The Woman Warrior is a seminal piece of writing about identity and the immigrant experience, and is widely hailed as a feminist classic.
