Battle Hymn Of The Tiger Mom, By Amy Tan

In the excerpt from ‘Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mom” the mother-daughter relationship differs from that of the excerpt from “The Joy Luck Club”. The writers Amy Chua and Amy Tan have different mother-daughter relationships as well as different tones. Chua comes at it from a mother's point of view, where Tan comes at it from the daughter. There is a lot of tension and frustration in Chua's memoir and that translates to the tone. Tans bitterness to her mom impacts their tone. There are differences in tones between the two recollections and the evidence in the memoirs proves it.
In “The Violin” Amy Chua's relationship with her mother is weak but you can tell there was a strong prior relationship outside of music. LuLu addresses her mother as “mommy”
