In this novel, she presents to the reader a story of four Chinese immigrant mothers and their daughters. The four mothers have their own view of the world, which was based on their life experiences in China. However, the daughters who grew up in the mainstream American culture have some kind of resentment for the so-called Chinese things, are dedicated to catering to the U.S. stuff. Four pairs of the mother-daughter conflicts in the novel are the mainstream, reflecting the conflicts and the differences in the concept of family education in China and the United States.
