At this point I'm a little confused. When the books is talking about her mother being a ghost and says that she has no memories, it threw me off. I was not under the impression that her mother had ever been away from her. I am also wondering now, who is the man in the picture that Popo is calling her father? I am interested to keep reading.
I thought it was very interesting and accurate the way Amy Tan describes the healing of An-mei's burn and the way that the skin is peeled off and forgotten. This is so true in life. I hope to get a little caught up tomorrow and Sunday.
Favorite for the day: Pg 45 where An-mei describes the way she feels as crickets scratching to get out of a cage.
