I’ve read so many stories that was just like this, a girl that would just leave you behind because of a boy that you really want, a handsome man and have a wealth, just because of that?

  • Two Kinds By Amy Tan Thesis Statement

    2019 Words  | 9 Pages

    Thesis Statement: In the short story, Two Kinds, Amy Tan develops a narrator who as a child seeks her mother’s approval of her, but develops into a child with her own mind, and by the end of the story embodies a woman who realizes that her mother has her own expression of love for her daughter. Thus, Amy Tan depicts a message about Jing-Mei, the narrator, accepting that everyone, especially her mother, has their own expressions of love. This will look different depending on who a person is and their background. Even though Jing-Mei does not always feel her mother loves her, she learns that her mother loves her by reflecting on her childhood and struggles.
