Yep states that the stories express the "loneliness, anger, fear, and love that were part of the Chinese-American experience."
I find this very interesting and it makes me wonder, is the loneliness, anger, fear, and love only apart of the Chinese American experience, or any American citizen, or anyone anywhere?
Folk tales, too, help to keep alive the traditions and values that are important to social groups.
I find this really interesting because I never thought as folk tales as much importance. Little did I know the value of them to keeping traditions and stories alive.
Books are sometimes windows, offering views of worlds that may be real or imagined, familiar or strange.
Books are can offer a sense of power, and without that power and knowledge, humanity’s intelligence would be much more delayed.
