The book that I am reading, "The Jade Peony" by Wayson Choy is a book based on a Chinese immigrant family in Vancouver, Chinatown in 1930 to 1940. They were trying to live there and doing their everyday life as citizen. The main characters had many conflicts at that time because of the war between China and Japan. World War 2 was about to begin, so there were many issues at that time. The book is very interesting because of the connection to our lives as well. Now, I am in Chapter 2 of the book. There is nothing I learn throughout these pages, but the story is getting more interesting. What I understand is, the main character wanted to go back to China because of bone shipment. But due to the war conflict, she was having a hard time. The inquiry question is how can we help the society to improve their life? This is a hard and general question, but many people are questioning about their life. Most people are having troubles through their life time. I'm looking forward to read more.
