Methodology
Marxist Criticism: Marxist critics maintain that literature does not exist in some timeless, aesthetic realm as an object to be passively contemplated. Rather, like all cultural manifestations, it is a product of the socialsocialeconomic and hence ideological conditions of the time and place in which it was written. Structuralism: Structuralists emphasize the whole. In their opinion, the whole is much more important than the parts cause any part has a complicated whole and it can’t be understood without the whole. That means if we want to understand one part well we should contact it with other parts within the whole. In The Joy Luck Club, Club, the things that happen to the mothers in old China and the things that happen to the mothers and their daughtes will be analyzed.

• She will fight for it. June Woo remembers that her mother was never satisfied with her: she always wanted June to be a genius, so June was determined to waste any talent she had, just to spite her mother. As an adult, June has always felt inferior to Waverly, and believed her mother thought she was as well. During new year's dinner, she got into a fight with Waverly, and afterward her mother told her that she understood her and implied that she loved her. The mothers think about their pasts. An-mei remembers that her mother killed herself to make a better life for her children, because in a marriage with four other wives, that was the only way for her children to have any of the benefits from her rich husband (who she was forced to marry, contrary to what her family believed).
