Journal Title: International scientific journal Science and Innovation - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
This research article explores the contributions of Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan to the discourse on Asian-American identity through an analysis of their respective literary works. Beginning with Maxine Hong Kingston's groundbreaking novel "The Woman Warrior," the article continues through Kingston's subsequent work, "China Men," further delves into the history of Chinese settlement in the United States, offering a multifaceted narrative genealogy of her family's experiences. In parallel, the article examines the impact of Amy Tan's novels, particularly "The Joy Luck Club" and "The Kitchen God's Wife," which illuminate the complexities of mother-daughter relationships, intergenerational conflicts, and cultural assimilation within Chinese-American families. Through Tan's exceptional works the article highlights her exploration of themes such as heritage, feminism, and the search for identity. Kingston and Tan have left a lasting legacy on contemporary literature, inspiring subsequent generations of Asian-American writers. Their novels continue to resonate with readers of all backgrounds, offering valuable perspectives on the immigrant experience and the evolving landscape of multiculturalism in America.
