Delve into the stories from Amy Tan’s life that inspired bestselling novels like The Joy Luck Club and The Valley of Amazement and the brand new memoir, Where the Past Begins

Amy Tan has touched millions of readers with haunting and sympathetic novels of cultural complexity and profound empathy. With the similar spirit and humor that characterize her acclaimed novels, she now shares her insight into her own life and how she escaped the curses of her past to make a long run of her own. She takes us on a journey from her childhood of tragedy and comedy to the current day and her arrival as one of the crucial world’s absolute best-loved novelists. Whether recalling arguments together with her mother in suburban California or introducing us to the ghosts that inhabit her computer, The Opposite of Fate offers vivid portraits of alternatives, attitudes, charms, and luck in action–a refreshing antidote to the sector-weariness and uncertainties we all face lately.
