Reviews"[An] absorbing tale of the mother-daughter bond . . . this book sing[s] with emotion and insight." -- People "Tan at her best . . . rich and hauntingly forlorn . . . The writing is so exacting and unique in its detail." -- San Francisco Chronicle " The Bonesetter's Daughter dramatically chronicles the tortured, devoted relationship between LuLing Young and her daughter Ruth. . . . A strong novel, filled with idiosyncratic, sympathetic characters, haunting images, historical complexity, significant contemporary themes, and suspenseful mystery." -- Los Angeles Times "For Tan, the true keeper of memory is language, and so the novel is layered with stories that have been written down--by mothers for their daughters, passing along secrets that cannot be said out loud but must not be forgotten." -- The New York Times Book Review "Amy Tan [has] done it again. . . . The Bonesetter's Daughter tells a compelling tale of family relationships; it layers and stirs themes of secrets, ambiguous meanings, cultural complexity and self-identity; and it resonates with metaphor and symbol." -- The Denver Post "As compelling as Tan's first bestseller The Joy Luck Club . . .

Nowhere has she explored it with more compassion or charm than in this touching new novel." -- The Richmond Times-Dispatch "An enchanting story of a mother and daughter, the secrets they have kept from one another, and the common ground they finally come to occupy.... A powerful, luminously written saga in which past and present are bound together into the tangled skein of a human life." -- The Anniston Star "A riveting, multi-layered tale . . . Tan's storytelling skills are strong, and her plot line appeals to the rebellious daughter in all of us." -- Toronto Globe and Mail, "AS COMPELLING AS TAN'S FIRST BESTSELLERTHE JOY LUCK CLUB. . .
