The Joy Luck Club
Haiku Book Review
Generational
Gap of mothers and daughters,
Circumstances shared.
"The Joy Luck Club" by Amy Tan is one of my all time favorite books which embraces the long term relationship of four women from China and their daughters. It was later turned into a movie starring Ming-Na Wen. It is another book where efforts were made to ban at high school in Wisconsin back in 2004 although it has not faced being banned at this time.
This is another entry for the fun challenge from Judey Kalchik to write book reviews as Haiku poems. If you would like to join challenge check out the Medium and Vocal Creator Support Group on facebook.

The Color Purple
Pain struck her throughout Yet the color of peace would Show her the way home. "The Color Purple" by Alice Walker has faced book bans since it was first published in 1982. Yet it is a novel based on a woman finding her own self-worth while facing racism and domestic violence all through her life. The book won a Pulitzer Prize and was turned into an Academy Award nominated movie starring Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah Winfrey. The ending still makes me cry. I highly recommend both book and movie if you have not read or seen.
